We've been looking into protals for ever now. First it was IBMs bloat, then it was something else, I think we're now looking into Jboss's portal solution. We already have a home grown portal for our divisions its pretty much a CMS along with a slew of applications that are put in as protlets. Protals are nice but they're also all emcompassing what a portal is to us may not be to you. Its one of the funny buzz words that means nothing but everything. That centralized thingy majigger would mean about the same thing.
