Hi,

  I'm starting to work on a new project - web platform. JBoss and Jboss Portal 
is one of the frameworks im considering to use. 
  One of the platform features has to be a possibility to dynamically create 
new portals using the predefined set of portlets. The goal is to let the 
customers of my customer to create they own portals within the same platform. 
The platform will provide some set of standard portlets that a user creating 
his own new portal could use and custimize their look and feel.

I.e. - one of such standard portlets will be my customer's catalogue of 
products. The final customers must be able to create their own portal, upload 
some HTML files and/or graphics and display them in the main portlet and put 
somewhere (where they want) that standard catalogue portlet. Of course he must 
be able to customize look and feel of all components used by his portal.

I know that it's a bit similar to this what CMS provides, but I think (maybe 
I'm wrong) that CMS brings too much overhead that will not be used at all in 
this platform.

My questions to you are:

1) Is such dynamic and on-the-fly (without restarting whole platform) portal 
creation possible with JB Portal?

2) Can such parallel portal use the predefined set of the same portlets and 
tags?

3) Do some examples of some 'Admin portlet' that allows creation of new portals 
in run time exist or do I have to write everything from the scratch?

4) Any other advices of what's the best (most effective) way to accomplish the 
above described functionality?

Thanks in advance,
Tomasz
