MyFaces Source code (was Source Code for MyFaces 1.1.3)

[Gergan Penkov <gp...@yahoo.de>]

Hi,
probably this e-mail should have been directed to dev@myfaces.apache.org or bugzilla, but as the results from my google search was http://www.mail-archive.com/users@myfaces.apache.org/msg21689.html and jira is not that user friendly, I'm posting this here.
The question of the original poster stays:
"So, my question is where can I find the corresponding source code to MyFaces Core 1.1.3?"
It seems that 3 months after this question was posted the only possible reply is still - from svn.
Now some could argue that this is just fine, but having pkged source is at least helpfull in some situation - it is easier to obtain, it helps the distribution packagers, it serves as reference, it really shows that the pkg could be built from that source, and of course not to forget that this is OSS project (what about apache doing only bin-release and saying you could get the source from svn).

I hope that the developers will re-consider this issue. Thank you in advance, for your time.

nope, we have them also on continuum.
MyFaces 1.1.4 is about to be release (with source).
See the dev list on that

source release is common too! was only b/c of our maven2 switch.
