[seam-dev] JSF 2.0 new feature series off to a strange start

[Dan Allen]

Ryan Lubke just began a preview series for the new features in JSF
2.0. That, in itself, is a good thing. But I'm terribly confused as to
why ProjectStage is the first feature highlighted, or why the hell it
is even a feature of JSF 2.0. Of all the things that are wrong with
JSF, that's the most important one? Seriously? Maybe I'm missing the
vision, but why in the hell does JSF control the deployment
environment variable anyway? Isn't JSF a UI framework? It boggles my
mind.

>From our farmhouse discussions on the future of JSF, I'm quite certain
that we are concerned about more important issues.
