Scott, thank for your reply. I've checked out your SWOOP code from sourceforge. I wasn't able to get it running too well - problems with resource bundles and such.
I did, however, pick-up a few tricks related to facelet templating. But, you didn't rewrite your jsp's (login,404, ...) into jsf+facelets, how do you plan to decorate those? Did you get rid of sitemesh all together; cause I think I will still delegate the decoration of *.jsp to sitemesh+strutsmenu and delay the burden of rewriting all jsp's into facelets to a later day. Ultimately, I would like to have nothing but facelets+jsf in my application. In fact, I'm not sure why AppFuse(JSF) doesn't come with exclusively facelets+jsf pages. Another question: what exactly do you mean when you say "refactored the ACEGI stuff to run under facelets" - I guess, I'm not there yet. But, please, give more detail or post a link to your blog (I couldn't find it). I should be getting around to this tomorrow. Lastly, I did finish facelets decoration default.xhtml + commons (header, footer, menu).xhtml This is sooo much better for sanity when working with facelets. If anyone is interested in seeing it, or having it contributed to AppFuse, I would be glad to provide. Scott Ryan wrote: > > I have completed the conversion from sitemesh to facelets.
