RichFaces 4.5.0.Beta1 - current status

Hey guys, There are currently 2 outstanding issues in the RichFaces 4.5.0.Beta1 effort: 1) Object-based autocomplete (RF-11453/RF-11332) 2) Placeholder duplicate rendering (RF-13769) I've got a PoC of 1) working locally. At least it's a select component that starts out with an empty suggestion list, and updates it via ajax once you start typing. I just need to work out the server-side filtering function and resolve some buggy behavior on the client. I expect to finish tomorrow and it should make a reasonable initial implementation. I have not yet had a chance to look into 2). @Michal if you could dive a little deeper into that issue tomorrow that would be great. I can pick it up with you once I resolve 1). Cody Lerum has a pull request in with a guava update. I'll merge that tomorrow. With the above issues resolved Beta1 should be in shape for QA. Brian
