Migration to new version of JSF with feature-rich but more compatible library

Currently I am using JSF 1.1 (Myfaces library). I am considering moving to JSF 2.0 and towards a more feature-rich implementation library but at the same time considering that migration issues must be as less as possible. People with the experience of JSF, please suggest.

Considering your comment regarding RichFaces:

RichFaces 4, that is supposed to support JSF2, supports only some of the components. See Milestone 1 documentation.

As well, if you used their CDK to create components, it will not work in JSF2.

However, I will definitely recommend to you to use PrimeFaces. You can see in the demo variety of components that are supported in JSF2.

BUT:

If you have many RichFaces components in your code, you may consider to upgrade a new model, and not the same one. It may require too much work and it's not clear when RichFaces are going to release the full component library for JSF2.
