Hi Arjan,

I have submitted multiple patches for Mojarra in the past that were accepted.
I have signed oracle OCA a while ago and am “on the list”: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/oca-486395.html
Also, I have published the diff-patch in the issue and issues and that was enough in the past.
I have, however sent the diff-patch to the below email address as well.

The path to use is sending the patch to issues_at_mojarra.java.net <mailto:issues_at_mojarra.java.net>. Only exception is if you signed the Oracle OCA before.

I personally am spending the little time I have mostly on work for JSR 375, while Bauke is still working on the f:websocket patch (it's severely more difficult and involving than initially anticipated).
