I wrote Spring integration with JSF 2.1 + RichFaces 4. it works not bad, if you are searching for rapid rich client implementation it might be good choice though.

You can see basic tutorial how it works:

I agree , have used JSF (ICE Faces) in the past, if you are looking for Rapid development of Rich Web apps, its a good option – Swapnil Sep 22 '11 at 04:40

SpringSource suggests PrimeFaces officially.

Since the question is not really PrimeFaces vs IceFaces (both JSF), but JSF vs YUI (or any other rich client framework), then the question comes down to: whatever makes sense for you. See my answer here: Spring MVC, what view components to use?.

Incase you are open to options other than "IceFaces/PrimeFaces, or use jsp with YUI/DWR"

Take a look at Spring Roo and GWT combination

It is geared for rapid development, with a lot of emphasis on template based code generation. GWT is a very powerful framework when it comes to developing Rich Applications.
