Couple of things. Can any of this be consolidated into fewer jars? I'm worried that the jars in the commons project are starting to look TOO segmented and functionality that is similar is not being put into a common jar. I haven't had time to take a look at Sev-en, but provided the framework does not "automatically" add significant overhead to the processing of the lifecycle, there should be no issues if it exists, unused, in the classpath.. We have several options here, the code could live in the validators or, if people feel it will add significant overhead or dependencies, maybe one other project.

As for the JSR-303, I strongly suggest AGAINST using the JSR number in your project name.. Why? When this spec gets updated, a new JSR will be created and then your jar has no reflection on reality because my guess it you wouldn't necessarily want to change it. Instead you might just want to call it "bean-validation".

Lastly, the commons project trunk is JSF 1.2, I think Matthias has a 1.1 branch and things are backported as needed. I would essentially put your 1.1 work into that branch so it can be versioned with the rest of the 1.1 commons projects.

Other then that, like Andrew, I've got enough on my plate ATM...

hello,

'sev-en' is just the intermediate (code-)name -> let's find a final name.

there will be some modules within commons-[new name] (which means several
jar files).

e.g.:

required to use sev-en:
commons-[new name]-core (currently one for jsf 1.1 and one for jsf 1.2)

optional:
commons-[new name]-validation (annotations + validation strategies,... and
also the validation strategy to support jpa validation)
 commons-[new name]-crossvalidation (annotations + validation strategies,
...)
commons-[new name]-jsr303 (validation strategies to support jsr 303, ...)

are there volunteers to join the development?

regards,
 gerhard
