Unfortunately, no. Between the geronimo release and several portals discussions that I ended up getting involved in, I was never able to follow through (though I did get to meet Aaron breifly).
Part of our portals discussions were that the jetspeed guys really want jetspeed to be the portal embedded within Geronimo. I believe that Dain had some conversations with David Sean Taylor about that approach. It's my understanding that DST is going to start working on a scaled down version of jetspeed. My humble opinion is that Pluto is more light weight and can easily meet what is needed for the future with a couple of tweeks. There are also advantages to jetspeed such as the fact that it has a more vibrant community (in fact, one of the reasons I like the idea of embedding pluto in geronimo and felix is my hope that it will help spur interest in pluto). What are the geronimo developer's thoughts? Are you leaning towards pluto or jetspeed? I'm still VERY interested in helping with this effort, so no matter what the approach I'd like to be involved. I've just started translating your current configurations into pluto 1.1 configuration and hope to have it up and running today. The only hiccup I'll have to get through is that it seems as though building and running G from source has changed since that last time I did it. TI can't find the modules/assembly distribution which I used to use and the wiki still references. Any hints or updated documentation I should be looking at?
