Mike,
I added you text, although with some minor changes.

Hey Paul.

Maybe you can help rewrite it so it's more obvious.

Apparently the problem is that some of the javascript generated by
1.1.3 isn't compatible with the JSF RI.  So in 1.1.4, those javascript
methods have been renamed.   No application-level code needs to change
(provided you're not using the internal javascript methods on your
pages), but you cannot mix Tomahawk 1.1.3 with MyFaces Core 1.1.4
because they use incompatible javascript.   Nor can you mix MyFaces
Core 1.1.3 with Tomahawk 1.1.4.   That's unfortunate because up to
this point we were advertising that you could mix and match them -- we
overlooked the javascript interdependencies.

Mike,
Please add a description, or link to one, about the following statement
in in the announcement.

  Core 1.1.4 is not backwards-compatible with Tomahawk 1.1.3.

The description should include instruction on what a developer must
change for 1.1.4 to work with their 1.1.3 application.
