Hi Karim,
Sun have a reference implementation of JSF which is included in the Web Services Developer Pack.
An open source JSF implementation is available and called 'myfaces' myfaces web page.
As for history, the JSF spec was developed by the JCP as JSR-127. For further info. you can check this out.
Regards,
Fintan

Here you can find a bunch of articles about JSF... I do believe u will get a lot from those articles... Meanwhile, those articles are useful for us to taste the JSF...

JSF has taken so long because its huge and there are a large number of people on the expert group. It takes a long time to herd 30 cats into the corral
It will almost certainly be done this year though.
