Apple Using JSF for online rebate system Blog

I received a tip from Matthias We?endorf that Apple is using JSF for its online rebate site, which you can see at <https://rebate.apple.com/art-web/pages/newAccountCreationPage.faces>. A quick View Source shows the presence of our javax.faces.ViewState hidden field. Inspection of the value of that field leads me to believe they are using Mojarra, but I am not certain. If someone can confirm this, I’d be glad. I've added them to the RealWorldJSFLinks Wiki. Please feel free to add any other sites that you know are usin JSF.

But that doesn't change the fact that JSF is broken and half-baked and one has to patch it with Seam and Facelets to make it usable. The built-in components are also mostly half-baked and broken. //
