In order to make this list available to Struts tags, you need to put it in a "scope" (application, session, request, or page). I would not use a bean:define tag for this. I'd use the following statement to put the list in page scope:

<% pageContext.setAttribute("list", list); %>

Once you have done this, you can use list in any struts tags. For example:

<logic:iterate id="element" name="list">
<bean:write name="element"/>
</logic:iterate>
