Since I don't currently use JSF, and am not likely to any time soon, that will not include MyFaces.
For a while, I was debating with myself (yeah, I know, not a good sign) as to whether I should lend my efforts to ADF Faces or to the (apparently inevitably) incoming Zimbra project. I decided against ADF Faces for the reasons mentioned above, even though I know there must be some interesting AJAX code in there. However, I've also decided against Zimbra, since I appear to be the only person concerned about its architecture, and frankly I don't have the energy to fight the uphill battle it would take to improve it, especially when there's only one of me and there's already a much better alternative available for me to use.
I still have some concerns about the MyFaces project, particularly the ability to incubate a new project effectively. (I'm thinking here of the Tobago effort, which still appears to be largely separate from the remainder of MyFaces, despite being technically almost through with the incubation process.) However, I'm confident that the community can work through that successfully without me.
See you around. And good luck!

Sounds good to me!
Well, I do think that Martin Cooper seems to be a little interested at
least, maybe we can get him aboard?
