John, The first one only maps to the user typing ".../faces" in the URL or link. You would use the first one if you wanted your servlet to correspond to a very specific URL. The second one allows the user to type ".../faces/otherStuff". You would use the second one if your servlet was acting as a controller or you wanted to hit all URLs.
