+1. I totally agree with this.  As you pointed out,
BEA portal leverage JSR170 to provide an abstraction
layer to other content management engines.  So if you
are an Interwoven and want to expose your content
management capabilities to the portal, you write an
implementation that plugin into the JSR170 (in BEA
world, they call it the CMSPI).

The interesting part with that is that your portal can
now talk to all kind of CMS systems and your code in
your portlets never has to change.  So if J2 were to
develop generic portlets leveraging content
management, users of J2 could swap out the default J2
content management implementation (JCMS ;)) with what
ever other CMS they want to leverage.  I believe that
this would be quite powerful.



This is what we are doing with JCMS based on some persistence store plugin. Now, I'm just wondering if it is not too early to start something with the JSR 170.
I hope that the Slide committers will provides this API. By this way, Slide will be the default implementation for the JCMS persistence service.
JSR 170 is coming back into the Slide project. So, we will see.
