Snjezana Peco resolved JBIDE-8687.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Done


I can't reproduce the issue either using the JBT 3.3.0 trunk or JBT 3.2 stable branch.

The Maven JSF Configurator isn't called if a project already contains the JSF facet. 
If you want to reproduce the problem using an existing project, you need to do the following:

- check the "web.xml for JSF 2.0 facet"  preference 
- right click the project and call Properties>Project Facets
- delete the JSF facet
- right-click the project and call Maven>Update Project Configuration

or

- create a new project using the jboss-jee6-webapp archetype
- check the "web.xml for JSF 2.0 facet"  preference
- import the project using the Import>Existing Maven Projects action

If after these steps the web.xml is still unchanged (no servlet definition is added to it), please reopen this jira.

> When importing a Java EE 6 webapp that contains a faces-config.xml descriptor, the JSF tooling unnecessarily adds a Faces Servlet declaration to the web.xml. The Faces Servlet is not required in Java EE 6 (at least on JBoss AS and GlassFish). What's worse, the Servlet is added with no mappings, so it completely breaks JSF.
