I have a particular interest in seeing Jetspeed Portlet API and Struts/Tiles integration. I am delighted to see the direction of considering other frameworks to integrate with and particularly that of Struts. Using relative community sizes as a gauge of market size, the Struts community is more than twice the size of the Turbine list so by offering the choice of framework you can surely strengthen the acceptance of the Jetspeed project further. By integrating with Struts this will also make Jetspeed available for integration with the Expresso Framework and Jcorporate's collaborative applications - since as of version 4.0 Expresso is based on Struts. In your list of frameworks Expresso (www.jcorporate.com) was not mentioned and perhaps should be since it is has the largest framework community with more than 4300 developers on its listserv. By estimates the combined Expresso/Struts communities accounts for ~85% of OSS Java framework market. snip > > * Struts > I like struts and i use it in my own projects, but i fail to see > JetSpeed as Struts app, i need to restate my study of struts to see how > can we implement a portlet container there..

I know there are many people in our community interested in Jetspeed too and there would be community interest in collaborating with the Jetspeed list on the Struts (and Expresso) integration. Please consider the opensource listserv ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) as a resource available to this list :). I will also create a forum on the jcorporate site for our community members to discuss this.
