Yep, I just picked up on that, thanks to our trusty #jsf2next tag (and the fact that he called us all out by name).But not enough time to run a spell checker or get all his facts straight. ;)
The way I look at it, these guys have the time to sit down, write their thoughts, and, in this case, create a PDF document.
That means they clearly are trying to communicate with us. Let's parse it, see what action items we can take (could simply be updates to javaserverfaces.org or jsfcentral.com) and roll with it. They are doing the hard work for us, we just have to pay attention.I agree, while he didn't learn enough to do some basic things in JSF... it shows that a "Senior Java Architect and Developer" with more than 10 years in the J2EE space, isn't getting the information he needs in order to do basic things.

p.s. Keep in mind that I do recognize that e-mail traffic has been heavy and the holidays are approaching, so I'm not pressuring anyone to act immediately. It's just important that we do capture this feedback and do analysis on it in due time. I look forward to what it will reveal.
