>From my memory "umbrella" was never the primary reason for Shale moving from Struts. It perhaps could have been, but the Shale devs took the decision to go TLP for Shale's benefit. Also IMO this is not an "umbrella" situation which from my PoV is when unrelated code bases and developers are grouped together. This is more of a "related "sub-project" situation and there are already developers in common between Shale and MyFaces. Its a decision for the two PMCs - but if they agree that its good for both projects, then I don't think there are any other factors which would prevent it. > I think that Shale should remain on its own, also because it contains > products that don't need JSF at all (I am thinking of shale-test). It does depend on JSF - for example: http://tinyurl.com/ypxab2 Niall > Antonio
