myfaces-commons.jar is just the stuff that was in the former 'share'
module (code that is shared between tomahawk and impl.)  The jar is
now to be released independently of the two projects and both the
myfacaces implementation distro and the tomahawk distro will contain a
version of myfaces-commons.jar.  Most likely each release of *either*
the implementation or tomahawk will involve a new release of commons.

A worthy idea.  We haven't gotten around to the snapshot repository
and a few other things like this yet but Bruno has written a plugin.=20
We just need to move it out of the test svn repo to its new home.

I was thinking that we could automate the website (like we were trying
to do with forrest.)  This way corrections to documentation and new
announcements get pushed out right away.

Before we cutover to the mavenized site, an extensive review is
definitely in order.  Also an automated link check would be nice as a
minimum.

So noted.  Bernd and I aren't wild about it but we're planning on
keeping it for now while we get the actual build working.  Then we can
revisit naming.  He is also looking forward to continuum which I know
you will be happy about.
