Request for comments on Myfaces project statuses
I'm in the process of compiling the Myfaces board report for October.
Would anyone care to comment on the activity and health of the
following subprojects? I've already written something up for
Trinidad, Tobago, and PortletBridge, which I've posted at the bottom,
but we can revise those if necessary.
JSF Implementation:
- Apache Myfaces Core is ...
UI-Component Sets:
- Myfaces Tomahawk is ...
Add-ons and Extensions:
- Apache MyFaces CODI is ...
- Apache MyFaces Orchestra is ...
- Apache MyFaces ExtVal is ...
- Apache MyFaces Test is ...
- Apache MyFaces Commons is ...
- Apache MyFaces Ext-Scripting is ...
- Apache MyFaces Sandbox is ...
UI-Component Sets:
- Apache Tobago is healthy and active.
- Apache Trinidad had three maintenance commits by two different new
contributors this quarter, which was encouraged by having issue
reporters submit fixes for their own issues. There may still be life
in this project.
Add-ons and Extensions:
- Apache MyFaces Portlet Bridge is dead. Last developer commit was
Jan 2014. We added a contributor who indicated interest in the
project in May, but no activity has been forthcoming. We will
probably need assistance in moving this project to the attic.

Hi
These are my personal comments:

I think the project is healthy, but we are on a maintenance stage, which
means the activity is reduced, because there are less and less issues
to be solved. A release could be done soon.

No activity on this part. The reason is over the time, many features and
ideas of Tomahawk were included into jsf spec, which at the end looks
better, but reduce the need of the specific hacks that Tomahawk provides,
even more with jsf 2.2 html5, composite components and, passthrough
attributes. There are some components that are still useful.
Add-ons and Extensions:

As we all know Apache MyFaces CODI is on maintenance stage too,
because it was replaced by DeltaSpike, so the new development is
happening there, which at the end looks better.

Few activity because for new projects it is better to use CDI and
DeltaSpike.
> - Apache MyFaces Test is ...

There is activity on this part, because it is a fundamental component for
MyFaces Core.

This project just provide some small utilities.

No activity on this part, because it takes a lot of effort to build
another component library, given the good quality options
provided by other jsf libraries. In practice JSF components that
relies on some kind of javascript are not 100% reliable across
different JSF component libraries, which makes really hard to
build components, usually because javascript libraries conflict
between each other and because there is not an standard
javascript loader for JSF.

Hi I would love to have Ext-Scripting put on hiatus.
I simply dont have time to maintain it ATM due to job constraints
and there is no community around it anyways (no public interest).
I still will however maintain the MyFaces core Javascripts in the future
as I used to have done it in the past.
