In my second-to-last project we had a JSR-168 portlet-based intranet
app (plus IBM Process Server back-end) foisted on us by unknowing
Enterprise Architects.  This kind of sums up my experiences - sounds
great on paper, but in reality we ended up building a standard web app
by bolting together multiple portlets.  Super hard (everything took
three steps backward - build, test, deployment, simplicity, speed,
etc.) and shocking tooling (this was a year ago and we used IBM's
Rational software Architect).

It looked like it might have been getting better with JSR-286 but that
could also have gone down the "far too complicated for its own good"
route.  I haven't had a chance to look at it.
