I am wondering whether the event of JSF 2.0 would not be a good
moment to create a new component set.

Well... another component set?

The main thoughts behind it are
- the 3 MyFaces component sets
  - are somewhat incompatible
  - have each their good points 
  - have some weak points
  - are missing some "cool" components
  - partially have duplicated components
  - are partially missing important concepts

JSF 2.0 brings a new concept to do components.

Now it would be possible to update each component set to JSF 2.0...
but a Tomahawk/JSF2 is "expected" to be backward compatible. So it 
would be difficult to radically change components or eliminate some
duplicates...

Whereas a new component set that would 
- take all good concepts from the existing 3 component sets 
  (and maybe some more from other comp-sets?)
- deliver a clean set of components
- just do it for JSF 2.0
- not have to take backwards compatibility into consideration


I think if such a new component set would fit, then it would be now the 
right time to think about the requirements... and as soon as a
workable beta is around the first steps for the realization could be
made...

regards
Alexander
