Hi Matt,

I got the stuff running, but the maintenance of the current implementation
is not what I expected. I tried to keep as much as possible of AppFuse 2.0.2
to use all the magic that is done by Maven in the background. But, for the
book examples there was too much stuff in it. Maybe I took the wrong AppFuse
distribution code finally. For example, you still get xfire exceptions. I
had to skip the security part because my extensions didn't work like
expected with it. 

I've to admit that I did not study all the AppFuse details because of
limitation in time. It seems to me that it would be a good idea to have the
possibility to choose what should be part of the stack. I didn't use Web
Services in my examples - so xfire was useless to me.

ICEfaces and also RichFaces should be part of AppFuse - and selectable.
Although, the Maven archetypes are pretty nice I think it would be more
useful to have a generator (Spring has one) that I can tell what I want to
combine, before a corresponding archetype / or Maven project is generated.
Maybe we can have a core for persistence and the upper layers are
selectable.

Meanwhile, there are other full stacks in Open Source, like the edoras
framework, that are advanced in ICEfaces integration. I will have a deeper
look at edoras when the 1.3 release is available.

ICEfusion and also ICEcube are written independent from the AppFuse stack. I
only need some links in the web.xml to get a Spring and JSF bridging.
Because of this I plan to port the code to other fullstacks. This will also
help to port it to the new AppFuse, if it will supports ICEfaces.

You can study my implementation to get inspirations for the new AppFuse
release. But I don't recommend to use my code as a base implementation.

Maybe this helps a bit.
