Hi Craig, I can only see how the first part is correct. If sharedData is a data structure in session scope (not in a JSF sense), it should behave the same. But if sharedData is a session scoped managed bean, I don't think the impl should create it - it should throw an exception at runtime because geographyProducer is a request scope managed bean. >Craig Dennis Byrne
