How to contribute?

[Aleksei Valikov <va...@gmx.net>]

Hi.

I've ported jenia4faces PopupBox onto MyFaces. The reason was to reuse 
MyFaces resource management, remove the need to configure jenia4faces 
servlet, allow static javascript configuration with 
JSFAttr.JAVASCRIPT_LOCATION and so on.

How could I make a contribution?

Bye.

I'm only one member of the MyFaces PMC, but I'd be hesitant to accept
such a donation.

Jenai4Faces components are best supported by the Jenia4Faces project. 
 I'd recommend instead that you provide Jenai4Faces with a patch so
that their components can be configured to use tomahawk directly.  
Helping them support both a tomahawk-specific configuration in
addition to a JSF-independent configuration for their components
should be done in such a way as to make it work for all of their
components, and will allow those who best understand the PopupBox
component (the original authors) to continue maintaining it, while
still allowing you to take advantage of Tomahawk resource management.

If they are not interested in supporting a Tomahawk-specific
configuration, then perhaps you could join the jsf-comp sourceforge
project at http://sourceforge.net/projects/jsf-comp/ and provide your
"port" of the component from there.

Again, other MyFaces PMC members may feel differently about it.   You
might get more of a response for pure MyFaces Development issues by
using the MyFaces dev list.
