The simple fact is that not a single FireStorm/DAO user has ever requested JSF support and there are technologies out that that are far more impressive such as Flex and some Ajax implementations.

The Good, the Bad, and JSF 2.0
The JSF 2.0 Expert Group has released an Early Access Draft of the next version of the specification, and it’s looking ugly. While it would be all to easy to provide a long list of reasons why the new version of the specification is disappointing, it should be sufficient to point to the comments on The Server Side discussion to understand why CodeFutures will not be added JSF support to FireStorm/DAO.

Java 6 for Mac OS X Leopard Released, Finally!
Java for Mac OS X 10.5, Update 1 is now available from Apple through the automated Software Update service.
One thing to watch out for is that the release is only for 64-bit, Intel-based Macs - so you are out of luck if you have a PowerPC-based or 32-bit Intel-based Mac.
As regular readers of CodeFutures' blogs will know, we're becoming big fans of Mac hardware. So the long awaited Java 6 release for the Mac OS is very welcome.
Expect to see improvements to our Mac support in FireStorm/DAO soon.
