Hi Kin-man,
The content of the JSR looks really good, however I think it is missing the "simplified API" item we previously discussed. Is it possible to add this to the JSR?
Also, I think we had previously discussed making EL available throughout a Java EE app, regardless of whether JSF/JSP is used, and providing a single canonical source to configure things like listeners, resolvers etc. I think this is best in the EE spec, however wanted to hear your thoughts on this.
Please list Red Hat as a supporter of the JSR, and include myself and Mike Brock on the EG.
Thanks!
Pete
