Scott, Thanks for the reply!
Things I've been wondering about are Struts compatibility (I think this is indirect to JetSpeed, though, as I can use the work done in the Velocity <> Struts integration), LDAP-based user authentication (listed as a 1.4b3 issue, just wondering if it will carry over to 2.0). To clarify your note, although OJB is the default persistence layer, I could use any other persistence layer if I needed to. What about user roles and how that applies to accessibility as described for JetSpeed 1.4? Will that be maintained? Likewise for the use of skins a.k.a "branding" - will that still be there?

If you want me to be more specific, give me some current examples issues that come to mind for you. Some things that have changed (for the better IMOHO): - No longer bound to Turbine (or any other framework for that matter) - No longer uses Torque, currently J2 uses a persistence plugin for all RDBMS operation. The default plugin uses OJB. - Jetspeed 2 should be much smaller than J1 as it will have less dependencies. - Standardized the build process using Maven. - We will be using a as of yet unnamed IoC/component/JMX based framework to help make the core of J2 highly pluggable and easily configurable. - All requests go through an easily configurable pipeline, allowing users to develop there own custom valves that can work with portlet requests as they see fit.
