There's several things in here we might want to adress:

1) moving renderer independent stuff out of tomahawk into a separate
jar (e.g.: alias-bean).

This will need a third repackaging of shared. I'm not so sure about
this one. I'd rather have tobago become compatible (not merging -
compatible) with tomahawk.

2) moving renderer dependent stuff from tomahawk into a new common jar
(e.g.: dojo javascript, which is of course renderer-dependent; for an
WML renderer the script might be different or not there at all)

I'd refrain from that - I'd only want to have a common.jar for some
base utility classes, which are not about to change very often (yes,
like the HTML class, and maybe some MessageUtils - maybe also our
version of JSFUtils); this utility package should IMHO not include
anything renderer specific.

3) Moving dojo stuff from sandbox from tomahawk

+1, this is independent of the blocker issues (it might only be
dependent of 2, but I'm -1 on 2), so we can vote and then act
separately.

4) fixing blocker issues

well, obviously it would be great if we would be able to fix them.
I'll have a look at whatever I can do early next week.

regards,

Martin

Yeah, I also have some changes that I want to commit that I've been
holding off on.   So you're not alone in the desire for things to get
going.   It may be as you hint below that we simply have to maintain
the patches in two branches.
