Comment from Cagatay Civici (PrimeFaces lead) about our last newscast:

“We are not moving away from jQuery in favor of custom javascript, we just write our own jQuery powered widgets designed with JSF in mind. For PF 3 we are actually avoiding 3rd party jQuery plugins like jQuery ui dialog, autocomplete, tabs and similar because PF 2 experience helped me to realize that although using 3rd party work is good to quickly come up with components, they extremely limit you in long term.”

Episode 6 – Dec 2011

Kito, Ian, and new co-host Daniel discuss the new DeltaSpike CDI project, plus new releases of PrimeFaces, MyFaces, ICEfaces, Spring, Hibernate, RichFaces, Mojarra, Seam, Artifactory, JRebel, and more.

NOTE: In the podcast, Kito mentions “Jason Lee Rubinger.” He should have said “Andrew Lee Rubinger.” Our apologies.

NOTE: In the previous newscast we gave the impression that MyFaces CODI was a CDI implementation. It’s certainly not — it’s a set of CDI extensions that run on top of a CDI implementation such as Weld or OpenWebBeans.
