Hi Sean,
I really think that most of our users are still using TC5.5 - as well
as the developers. I know of no one using Glassfish, and I know of no
one using TC6.
Why do you call this the most specialized of all cases, then?
Apart from that - my line of arguing has been that we want to
implement as much of 1.2 as we can with TC5.5 - and give users a way
to gain the benefits of 1.2 without having to go with the drawbacks
(and the drawbacks are that you have to use JDK1.5 and JSP2.1 right
now, where adoption of both technologies is lacking).
IMO, the problem is that a JSF 1.2 + TC5.5 combination can *never* be
a supported, production-level release, by JCP rules. So, you're not
much helping users out by giving something that they can't release
into a production environment.
JSF 1.2, for better or worse, is part of a cluster of technologies where
adoption is lacking. That makes a great case for continuing to put
effort into JSF 1.1-based software.
