JSF 1.2: branch, wiki, maven repo, ...

[Manfred Geiler]

Hi all,
As you know, Stan is currently working hard on the next generation MyFaces Stuff aka JSF 1.2.
I would like to give you some infos about an offline conversation we had a few hours ago.
 * We decided to create a branch of the current myfaces core trunk - let's call it "jsf12" or "jsr-252"
 * All important infos will be tracked at http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/JSR-252 . The page is currently maintained by Stan, but feel free to add your ideas, issues, comments, etc.
 * Stan will speak to Tomcat guys to get green light for adding the needed Tomcat-6 jars into the apache snapshot repo at http://cvs.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository/ . This way we could have a working maven build although Tomcat-6 jars are not maven published yet.
 * Everything that is somehow (backwards) compatible to JSF 1.1 stuff and does not break jsr-127 TCK will go to the trunk, so that we can keep the branched stuff at a minimum.

Any thoughts or vetos?

Regards,
Manfred
