Ilja,

You have to think about Jetspeed in terms of it being a framework to
integrate your requirements into it by learning about the capability of
the default portlets. The problem of content management always comes
upon us quickly. For example, we needed a portlet that would announce
company news. We solved it by installing Zope, we then added a Zope
Product called Squishddot, a Slashdot look alike and that gave us the
ability to author the announcement and publish it quickly. We used an
IFrame portlet to host the content and it really did not take that much
time to install, configure and test. We had only minor server side
development to support it.

Thus, you will sometimes find it quicker to go outside of the Jetspeed
community to find a plug and play solution that can work in a portlet. I
doubt that you are going to find a ready made portlet that will give you
instant news publishing. But, if you spend a little time researching,
you might come up with a combination that will work such as Zope, Silva
Product and the Silva News Extension that might work nicely. I know for
myself I had to learn about the different portlet frameworks available
first. 

Good Luck.

John
