Yes, I would like to have it "mainstreamed", I just wanted to be
sure to understand how things work before I come up with a proposal.
There are some problematic points in the scaffold, which will not
easily be managed by inheritance e.g. BackingBean.jv, so I am
convinced, that only a clean and clear design can make it work.
No, I do _not_ want to create a parallel development, it just looks
like you are in the middle of closing 1.0..
Anyhow I made a git project "
plugin-faces-idaware" on github.com, so you can have a look at my
changes anytime - please not yet, the issues with package visibility
are still a problem. I'm not so used to git yet, though I gradually
tend to get hooked :-)
I promise I will send a pull request when it's stable enough to have
it integrated. I really do think that stability of the seam plugin
is key for the success of Forge.
@reverse engineer: I had a go with the hibernate plugin, but I
found, that it produces field access annotations, which I do not
like.
So I simply used Eclipse Hibernate tools (JBoss plugin??) to reverse
engineer my database and then copied the sources into a Forge
project.
Works great, that's exactly what I expected from a tool like Forge
:-))

First,
It's awesome that you've been getting into the Inspectors and
WidgetBuilders! I think that's great!
It sounds like you starting creating a new scaffold because there
were some problems with the existing one.
My question is:
"Are there enough differences between the Faces scaffold and the
one that you are writing, that you think they should be separate?"
OR do you think we should just fix what is wrong with the existing
one? (I would lean toward fixing it, and adding extension points
for any places where you want things to be different :)
What do you think?
I'd love to help you however I can to make this happen.
We usually just use Pull requests and JIRA issues to track this
type of work so that everyone can stay in sync! Sound like
something you're interested in? It's ok that you don't have much
time - this is open source!

PS. Which type of database engineering did you use? Forge? How did
it work for you?
