Daily Dose - ICEfaces 2.0 - A Wintery, JSF 2-based Release

Microsoft Builds a Playground for Unstable Parts of HTML5
For the web standards that could still change in their long trek through

unstandardized standards. Microsoft says this is the more prudent
approach to HTML5 support, and they will be supporting this model in
IE9. Current 'playground' specs include WebSockets and IndexedDB.
