First Release of Trinidad Core 2.0.0-alpha

The Apache MyFaces community has recently released two new component libraries; version 2.0.0 of MyFaces Trinidad Maven2 plug-ins and the first release of the Apache MyFaces Trinidad 2 series; Trinidad Core 2.0.0-alpha.

Trinidad Core 2.0.0-alpha features support for the new Lifecycle Management Methods and BeanValidation API, and allows the use of JSF ProjectState API for some configuration parameters. Trinidad Core 2.0.0-alpha is runnable on JSF 2.0, but is not yet production ready.

Meanwhile, Trinidad Maven2 version 2.0.0 adds support for the JSF 2.0 related API/metadata and 2.0 faces-config.xml elements.Trinidad was originally owned by Oracle, and was known as Application Development Framework (ADF). In June 2006 Oracle Corporation donated the ADF Faces component library to Apache Trinidad, who renamed it following a vote.
