This is the second blog in the JSF 2.0 New Feature Preview Series.
The previous entry covered ProjectStage, now well cover Resources.
Keep in mind that none of the features described are final, and may change,
but this is a good opportunity to show the features as they exist now and illicit feedback.
The term Resources is pretty vague, so lets clarify that first. Resources are any
artifacts that a component may need in order to be rendered properly to
a user-agent. So think images, CSS, or JavaScript files.
Previous versions of JSF had no facility for serving resources, so component
libraries either had to cook up their own mechanism for serving resources
or use something like Weblets so that these resources could be packaged
with their component library.
