"MyFaces" means two different things -- the JSF implementation and the Tomahawk components. As I mentioned earlier, the MyFaces and RI implementations of JSF are interchangeable. But neither have the extra functionality that Shale provides -- if the feature list on the Shale page interests you, you will want to use it (with *either* implementation). Make your judgement between JSF implementations based on beyond-spec features and/or performance and/or quality. If you like the Tomahawk components, feel free to use them -- with either the MyFaces or Ri implementations -- and with or without Shale. Mix and match what you need. Your messages don't make it clear that you understand that things like "Shale versus MyFaces" are *not* decisions you need to even make. Thanks Craig
