Discussions

• The MyFaces PMC worked with folks from Oracle, the JCP and the legal list to get a slight modification of the notice for the portlet bridge implementation, which is backed by the JSR 301.

• A proposal to create a common skinning module is being discussed on the dev list, which could be used by all the myfaces component libraries, and potentially become part of a future version of JSF. Several community members are involved on the discussion of such an API / an implementation.
