Sounds nice. Is this "demo Jetspeed setup" actually live somewhere? Adding some weblogs as newsfeeds would be good too. Weblogs are wonderful things. Have a look at http://www.need-a-cake.com/ Any JAMES people lurking here? Would it be possible to rig up a mailet that wraps incoming posts in XML and makes them available as an RSS feed? That way we could have an easy-to-use news submission process. FYI (for those who weren't aware), there's a new xml-forrest project project at xml.apache.org, specifically for things like this. Another FYI for Jetspeed people: Cocoon is very much encroaching on your portal turf ;) See http://www.need-a-cake.com/stories/2002/02/14/cocoonPortalFirstLook.html --Jeff (idling.. friday evening..) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
