Hi Ed & all,
If you're doing this kind of refactoring, then I think you should move the new "vdl" package to javax.faces.vdl rather than javax.faces.webapp.vdl. It would be better that way since the vdl is not by definition linked to the message transport layer (webapp). For example, it would be theoretically possible to load a view without being in webapp (assuming the vdl doesn't requires accept to a ServletContext) then serve it to the client using whatnot technology (assuming that technology has a FacesServlet equivalent).
Regards,
~ Simon
