Hi,

I am assuming (and you know what problems that can cause...) that you
are looking at a largely java website development - where you will be
adding your portlets to Jetspeed.

My main question would be - what is there to justify about Jetspeed -
it can't be cost?

I can see that you might be comparing it with other technologies -
tapestry, struts, velocity-direct, turbine-direct, jsp, etc.  But
then you need to evaluate it - what are the pros and cons of the
choices for your environment.

Jetspeed currently has a beta release - which indicates there are
rough parts to it - but you get the source code, so if there is a
problem you have the means to find the solution yourself ....

Basically Jetspeed is a servlet - all you need to justify is using
servlets or not.  If you decide on servlets - then Jetspeed gives you
a big leg up in developing an application (but then so does struts et
al).  But its still a servlet... 

Have fun,
Chris

PS - As for recognising a jetspeed site - you might base it on seeing
/portal in the URL, but that is configurable.  There are no standard
extensions.  It uses the turbine convention of name/value pairs in
the url, if required, for example - /portal/action/JLogout.
