At work we were googling for the answer to (yet) another obscure JSF/Facelets issue and came across this <sarcasm-alert>gem</sarcasm-alert>, posted in May last year (2006).
The interesting sentence from our point of view was the beginning of paragraph 5, in which I believe the writer has (quite by accident) left out a large chunk of the text…
Just to be helpful (of course), I’ve completed the missing text — the original wording is italicised, so you can see the minor additions I’ve made:
After a battle of epic proportions, the dust has finally settled. It takes a few moments for the smoke to clear, but gradually a scene of the most grotesque nature appears. The dismembered bodies of developers lie strewn across the ground, many so mutilated it is no longer possible to recognise individual body parts. A precious few still twitch and groan, in a feeble attempt to regain their feet… to fight the good fight. But those still alive recognise the futility of their efforts, and despair. Yes, the carnage is over… and the demon has triumphed — JSF has emerged the winner.
