Are you going to use JSP with JSF 2.0?
Now that JSF 2.0 has standardized Facelets as a default view declaration language, and deprecated JSP, would you anticipate OpenFaces 3.x continue support of JSP? Feel free to share your considerations in comments.

Not sure -- I'll just use JSF 1.2 for a while. (31%)

We're introducing the new OpenFaces LevelIndicator component which is already available in the latest nightly builds.
LevelIndicator - a component that shows a numeric value in graphic style, similar to the LED volume meter and resource meter used in Windows Task Manager.
LevelIndicator component can be defined on the page using <o:levelIndicator> tag. LevelIndicator can be provided with the level value that it will represent. The value should be of typejava.lang.Double and be in [0..1] range.
On the following examples you can see the LevelIndicator component in it's default horizontal and vertical states.
The component has transitionLevels and colors attributes, so using these attributes you can define value ranges and specify appropriate colors for them.
<o:levelIndicator value="0.8" colors="blue,orange,violet" transitionLevels="0.35, 0.6" />
The upper declaration defines that LevelIndicator component has two transition level points at 0.35 and 0.6,
this means that LevelIndicator has three value ranges([0 - 0.35] , [0.35 - 0.6] , [0.6 - 1]).
Each of defined value ranges will use each own color, defined in colors attribute of <o:levelIndicator> tag. The result component's representation can be seen on the example below.
As it can be seen from the example below, the component's styles and sizes can be easily customized to the desired look.
<o:levelIndicator value="0.8"
style="background-color: #e6e6e6; border: 1px solid #333; width: 350px; height: 40px;"
segmentSize="5"
colors="blue,orange,violet"
transitionLevels="0.35, 0.6"/>
