Mark,

Just my 2 cents (and I am not one of the developers, for better or worse) but
as a technologist who has implemented portal based intranets for financial
companies with custom developed "Communities of Practice" hand-rolled into the
commercial product, I would *love* to see this happen and believe it would be a
huge boom to Jetspeed.

and to all of you... thanks for Jetspeed!

Kind Regards,
