All,
Thank you so much for your votes on my Oracle Open World presentation proposals. Many heavy hitters in the ADF community have voted for this presentation. It is on JSF Custom Components: Frank Nimphius, Grant Ronald, Peter Moskovits, and the list goes on and on.
I have noticed that Oracle Mix has been a bit flaky at time for the links that I distributed. If you wanted to vote but could not see the links, please try the proposal page; you should have better luck. At this time I am on the second page of Top proposals:

I am very excited to be involved with this campaign. :-)

Hi. I want to speak at Oracle Open World 2009. My paper is on creating JSF Custom Components.
Please read my abstract and vote for my paper at
https://mix.oracle.com/oow/proposals/10362
Note: in order for your vote to count, you will need to ...
1. Have/log into an Oracle Mix account (follow the appropriate links if you don't already have an Oracle Mix account; good site to check out, anyway)
2. Vote for at least 3 papers.
To help with 2. above, please also vote for a friend of mine...
https://mix.oracle.com/oow/proposals/10432
And then...your vote #3 can be random or pointed...
Thanks for your time.

Open World Abstract...
I have submitted an abstract for Oracle Open World. I want to do an instructive paper on how to do custom component development. I think I still have a lot to learn; I had read a chapter or two and done some exercises and examples and thought I knew what I was doing. At the time I learned these basics I felt very proud of them. Now I feel sheepish for feeling proud, since I now know definitively some things which then I only kind of knew.
At the height of my smugness I decided I would try and extend a rich faces component…that did not work out quite as well as I had hoped. I was able to put markup before and after the af:table (rich table, that is), but I cannot seem (yet) to figure out how to get into the middle of it – inside the box where the columns are or in-between the columns. I thought I knew where to look for this, but I am not finding what I expected when I look where I thought I should.
So far my efforts to augment these components have met with very limited success. There is a section in the Fusion Developers ADF Guide 11g about extending components (I hope they mean UI components and not business components) that I should read for sure and probably reference. Maybe that will give me some insight. Maybe for my understanding level, it would be more helpful to attendees if I stick with more basic concepts, like how the pieces I know about interact.
I know the declarative components are custom component combinations, which is quite handy. I have a 10g project where I could really use something like that. Maybe that is something I can explore for my paper: implementing declarative component conceptually, in order to help understand custom component development.
For my edification however I would like to know more details on how Oracle implemented their rich components. When I try to alter them or get inside of them, everything I do seems to not allow me to get at the inner parts of the component. I do not know how Oracle is hiding this.
For starters I see that there are property elements in the components when they are defined in faces-config.xml. I did not know that component properties could be define or elaborated on there. I do not know what that adds, but I would like to know.
I should study JSF details from the Java EE 5.0 tutorial. Hopefully they would have some further explanation of this. Or maybe the standards for Java EE 5.0: maybe they specify some details of JSF that would help me understand what Oracle and everybody else is doing with their components…and help me with this paper.
