Hi Marco,
I say go for it! I've personally had bad luck with WPS WebClipping, I've
actually considered writing one b/c at the time I needed greater control
than what I had or knew. I suppose I could have dug into the transcoder
stuff... but by that time requirements changed. I'm not knocking the WPS
portlet, just pointing out the value in having the source - an open source
version.
I was working with David Taylor and Josh Hsieh on the concept of
RemoteService interface, and a WebPageService, RemoteConfiguration, and
RemoteSession (using commons-httpclient 2.?) Basically, the service would
provide "Remote" content services, e.g. http, https (this is the
WebPageService), other RemoteService implementations could be WebDAV, FTP,
sFTP, etc. The use for service was/is for WebPagePortlet2. Basically the
WebPageService uses httpclient to manage url retrieval as well as
authentication, http proxy support, session "proxying", and holding a host
configuration for the portlet once it has requested and set a configuration
/ holding the cookies, and credentials for a user per host config. I can
send you what I had done (anyone else as well). The main reason I contacted
David directly about this work - as opposed to on the list is b/c I still
consider myself "new to java", and want to have David's advice, and code
review, and what not.
Last I left I off with it... I had sent Josh and David my .war. I think I
scared them off with my code? :[ I didn't hear back. David, I realize how
busy you've been (hopefully it wasn't entirely my code), so perhaps David,
Josh, Marco, and myself and anyone else can work on this. I'd see this as
the;
It wasn't your code. Honestly, I just forgot about it. Im going to review the code now, and I'll get back to you today
