      Hi all, I'm new to RichFaces and would really like to use it in an upcoming project but I am having a heck of a time getting things together.

      I have used the suggestions at http://www.jroller.com/jbarth/entry/jsf_facelets_richfaces_on_websphere but still no luck.

      Using the following...
      RAD 7
      WAS 6.0
      in my lib from the website above...
      commons-beanutils-1.7.0
      commons-collections-3.1
      commons-digester-1.6
      el-api
      el-ri
      icu4j_3_4_1
      jsf-api
      jsf-facelets
      jsf-impl
      richfaces-api-3.14GA
      richfaces-impl-3.14GA
      richfaces-ui-3.14GA

      I am getting a null pointer exception - Ill try to post as much info as I can. Thanks in advance for any help!

      And finally, my very simple test page, test.xhtml...
