[jsr-314-open] www.javaserverfaces.org (JSF Root Node)

[lincolnbaxter at gmail.com]

Hi Everyone,

As part of our initiative to engage the community, Dan, Andy, Kito, and I  
have been putting together a "JSF Root Node" (as Ed put it.)

www.javaserverfaces.org
www.javaserverfaces.com
(note the "www", which is required at this time.)

The goals of this site:
* Provide a definitive starting point for users to get involved with JSF.
* Provide information "About JSF", Information about the Spec, "Getting  
Started", "Documentation", "FAQ", Community Involvement, and anything else  
that we all think necessary to engage and promote our user-base. The site  
will "out-link" as appropriate to additional resources.
* Promote ourselves as a competitive/welcoming solution in the Java-web  
framework community, both at the corporate and consumer/developer level.

There are more goals, but I won't list them out here.

We intend for this site to be comparable to http://php.net and  
http://grails.org, to look and feel attractive, and to really draw people  
into the JSF world. There are some resources on the way to help get this  
shell/stopgap site off of google sites, and on to a real web-server, with  
real functionality, and a smooth look & feel.

It's my personal goal to get this site written using JSF itself, and to  
make it the product of all of our ideas put together.

This site is for all of us, to benefit all of us, and the initial  
announcement is a little late. But if people ask how they can get started  
with JSF, we should all be pointing them to the same place:

www.javaserverfaces.org

Thanks,
Lincoln, Dan, Andy, Kito
