There was an old JetSpeed API and there's a newer Portlet API that was
modeled after the Servlet API, defining interfaces to isolate portlets
entirely from the portal server implementation classes. The WPS 1.2 Portlet
API is based on the API under proposals/portletAPI with some
corrections/improvements that we had to make when really implementing the
API.
I think we are at an intermediate stage right now - ultimately, there needs
to be a standard Portlet API that is common across all Portal Servers -
JetSpeed, WebSphere Portal Server and other J2EE based application servers.
This will enable portlet providers to write portlets that run on all portal
server platforms.
The Portlet API is the important interface for interoperability while the
portal implementations are where portals will differentiate themselves from
others by providing different features depending on what requirements they
consider important. WebSphere Portal Server for example must provide a
large amount of new functionality for the next release to satisfy the
requirements of a multitude of large customers, the same is probably true
for the portal servers of the other portal server vendors.

Subject: Re: IBM WPS: What version of Jetspeed does it use?
This means the Jetspeed from IBM WPS is not Jetspeed API... right,
I see in the web site there is several tag for PSML that is different..
like <allowed> etc.
Right???
Or this means WPS is a step a head rather that Jetspeed it self... right...
if yes, this is a strange step, Xerces is faster than JAXP, that why
Crimson
is donated by Sun right???
