It was interesting to me to compare HTML with JSF. And compare HTML tags with JSF tags. If it's a choice of one or the other, I'll stick with HTML. I don't see the value of an additional intermediate tag language, particularly if you end up needing to mix HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with JSF.
The benefit of the JSF tags is the direct binding to the variables. With JSF I create an input field, then bind it to a variable. When I put data in the variable, it shows up in the page. When the user enters data, it shows up in my EGL program. I don't have to do anything else. With HTML, you have to first add the input field. THEN you have to *manually* modify the input field to have a tagged value that will accept data from the program. Then you have to write code in your program to stuff the value into the tag. Then you have to write code to extract the user data from input stream.

If you don't see the value to the JSF approach, then we can just move on.
