Hi all,
We've almost finished development of a vertical portal for a client using the
Jetspeed framework. It has been a fairly smooth development cycle and we'll
definitely be using Jetspeed again for future portals.
We thought someone else may like to see the results, so we've posted some
sample pages at:

As part of this development we've developed a new portlet control and the
following new portlets:
RSS news feed built on JDBC
o Full administration features to add/remove/update news items.
o The ability to upload a file for the full news story.
o A servlet abstraction for publishing the RSS feed to other portals.
o Multiple channel support.
Event portlet
o Simple �calendar style portlet for displaying upcoming events.
o The ability to upload a file for the event details. ie. Pdf brochure
o Registration process for attending the event (free or chargeable).
o Integration into a payment gateway. Receipt generation and audit based
� transactions.

Other features of the portal include:
