Apparently there is a problem with faces-config.xml in myfaces-all.jar of the current release. All of this confusion seems to be coming from the fact that sandbox is in myfaces-all.jar in the nighlty but not the release. We have the -Dskip.sandbox option and a bunch of other hacks in the build to make everything work the way it is now. I propose that we not include the sandbox stuff in the myfaces-all.jar anymore. I was always against this and I think the resulting confusion and series of hacks outweighs the argument of those that are lazy and don't want to include two jars in their ongoing projects. Sandbox is untested, undocumented, unvoted and unreleased code. It deserves its own jar with its own tld. Its already excluded from the release build (which I believe is correct) but the myfaces-all.jar in the nightly should mirror whats in the release. So the proposal is that dist-all generates a separate sandbox.jar with its own faces-config.xml and its own sanbox.tld. I propose we do this *before* any patch release. Also this will not affect SVN. It will be a build change only. sean
