Hello Wolf, nobody said that passed TCK means it is now 100% bug free. Sure, passing TCK is a massive step forward, and MyFaces 1.2.x passes the TCK since May. We waited until now, added fixes etc.
When you file bugs for the issues you notice, you ensure, that these don't get lost. We all spent a huge amount of our spare time into this project and sure, there might be untested areas. Perhaps we should have better named it -alpha. The next release will be called 1.2.0.1, based on these issues (please file jira tickets). Attaching some more infos, like stack trace or debug infos, would speed up things! I'll try to look at some of your issues over the weekend. Thanks, Matthias On 7/20/07, Wolf Benz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

For me, exception messages of MyFaces are not verbose enough to give you an orientation on what's exactly going wrong. I think some work of catching and rethrowing more explicit and verbose exceptions could help in all developement and integration phasis. -- This is exactly the problem. I have colleagues developing (production-)apps with the RI too. They're started in under 5 minutes... It's tough trying to defend smth as a better alternative (even with your arguments) if you can't back that up getting the first simple page to render... Then your boss says: look it up on their website, it must be there, right? Errrrr... It wasn't my intention to pull down all the long and hard work people put in this release, merely to make a point it could have been organized a little better, Time/Documentation/Testing -wise. It's just unfortunate, doesn't give it a good name. -Wolf
