   * More on the "logger vote" (for details check our July2009 report): The original vote was to replace commons-logging with the Java Util Logger (jul). Current situation in MyFaces is that some projects use different loggers:
    * Apache MyFaces Trinidad => JUL (+ a little facade for i18n)
+   * CORE 2.0 => JUL
-   * Core,Tomahawk,Tobago => commons-logging
+   * Core (for 1.x),Tomahawk,Tobago => commons-logging
  Now, the vote was to replace the commons-logger by JUL (like Trinidad has), but some other project want to use slf4j. Finally agreement is that we (the myfaces community) are now +1 to go away from commons-logger. This suggestion (http://markmail.org/message/5rrjzerkzuqtymxg) we agreed on (no more mails means agreed). Seriously, as there are tons and gazillions of different loggers, votes (and discussions) on loggers are always fun...
+  * Work on Trinidad 2.0 (based on JSF 2.0) started. This branch requires now JDK 1.6. We also got new contributions in that area.
+  * A scripting subproject has been created. Currently the work is on getting the groovy support bridge stable. This may become part of the MyFaces core stuff
+ but for now this is an extra module
+  * The MyFaces PMC is trying to get another guy -Werner Punz- to join the JSF expert group (as a backup for Martin Marinschek), however there is NO response from the expert group (and its lead). Not sure how this can be solved in the future.
