• CDDL vs ASF License for Dynafaces

• Tree Traversal

• • Ability to visit every node, even every cell in a datatable (or other "black box" component).

• • Ability to have a "component" implicit object

• When mining requirements for JSF 2.0, look at myfaces dev list in mid September 2006. Subject: "off topic".

• Ajax: Lifecycle

• Facelets

• More components in the standard library

• Static resources

• Conversation Scope

• Multi-window applications

• Component awareness of dependencies

• • what should happen when certain conditions are met or not met. For example, allow a component to do different things based on what browser or server they are running.

• • ability to have any component that I buy, if the component fails, that I will know how it fails so I can degrade gracefully. For example, graceful degredation in case of failed dependencies.

• Remote portlets, mashup portlets, bringing them together at the server

• Make it possible for someone to pass the JSF 1.2 TCK without implementing any deprecated methods.

• Dynafaces: allow a regexp to arrive at the set of clientIds for the partial traversal.

• Make sure JSF 2.0 is not just an AJAX release

• Version synchronization. JSF 2.0 renamed JSF 6 to go with Java EE 6.
