Chris, Indeed we will be attempting to deploy the par files we create for WPS. The objective is to test our portlets on both platforms as they are modified and committed to cvs. This means having a baseline version of WPS and Jetspeed running on a production box. Nightly we desire to redeploy the portlets in the repository on each platform and run a series of test scripts against the newly installed codebase.
We would likely freeze on a known stable instance of Jetspeed (and WPS for that matter) so building the jetspeed source should not be necessary. From your comments I believe the best way to proceed is to create a default war file that represents the baseline instance of Jetspeed. The old jetspeed app could be deleted and the instance rebuilt through redeploying the war file. This seems simple enough...

I assume your project is using Jetspeed and you want to keep up to date with the latest versions (or at least update it a few times)... What I've found useful is to build the jetspeed jar/jarsrc and war-template targets in Jetspeed. These 3 can then be used within your project to build the complete app by merging them.
