Good point. Bad terms with probably too many options. Clay can be used with JSP or as a page entry point like facelets. The template can be non-xhtml, xhtml or an abstract reference defined in XML that doesn't correspond to a physical resource similar to tiles. The templates can be loaded from the context root or from the classpath. Clay templates allow inheritance in addition to composition. Many have told me that Facelets has clearly won and we should just try to help them out.... JSF 2 will be featured from facelets. > Bernhard Gary
