Hi all, Today, I have been adding some initial stuff to http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/Drafts/Site/ and some pages below that. Most of the texts are slightly adapted texts from my book. Please let me know what you think about this. Feel free to edit the pages to correct errors or add useful info. I hope to add some more stuff in the weeks to come.
FYI: I have signed an ICLA aggreement and sent it to the Apache secretary. I got a confirmation that it was received.
