Re: [jsr-314-open] [jsf2next] PROJECT_STAGE system property configuration

We should also probably decide and state that configuration defined in web.xml will override the system property.. or visa versa. Though I think the former allows more fine grained control.

Okay, thanks for the update Ed.  I wasn't aware that there had been push back from the Servlet EG on this. Personally I don't understand the nature of the objection.  In some case fine-grained (application-specific) control is desired.  We have addressed this case via the context parameter.  There seems to be general agreement in our EG that a system-level property would also be beneficial and in particular would improve the ease of use of this feature for development-time scenarios (ie. no need for a web.xml or JNDI config).  Not sure why we need to choose one approach vs. the other.  Both serve a purpose. > In fact, I'm on the phone with Bill Shannon, Roberto Chinnici, Rajiv > > Mordani, and the Sun EE a... Wow, sounds harsh.  I guess I am missing why this is so controversial. In any case, thanks for raising this (again). Andy
