Hello MyFaces developers,

It has come to my attention that several people have complained about
the FacesServlet class moving from being non-final to being
final. [1][2][3]

I just wanted to set the record straight on this point.

According to the JSF 1.0 spec, the class has always been final. [4] I
contrasted this with svn revision 166408 of FacesServlet.java from
MyFaces and found that it was not final.  Therefore, I conclude that
this issue was a bug that has been fixed in the MyFaces impl.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled discussion.

Ed
