Thanks again, Scott. Sounds like I need to start building out of CVS and playing with it to see how it's going to hang together.

We will definitely support LDAP, however the security model is still in the planning stages. As for Stuts, I hear they (the Struts team) are working on new controller servlets that should "play well" with JSR-168 portals. I have yet to plug a struts app into J2 yet, but it is on the top of my list. > To clarify your note, although OJB is the default persistence layer, I > could > use any other persistence layer if I needed to. > Sure, you just need to implement a couple of interfaces to act as adapters to the persistence layer of your choice. > What about user roles and how that applies to accessibility as described > for > JetSpeed 1.4? Will that be maintained? That is still up in the air, it will probably become clearer when we start working on conversion tools/adapters for existing J1 applications. > > Likewise for the use of skins a.k.a "branding" - will that still be there? Most definitely, however in a different fashion than what you are used to current in J1. There will no longer be skin registries and the layouts/themes/skins what have you will be much easier to develop and deploy. > > Thanks again, > > -ronc > *================================* | Scott T Weaver | | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | Apache Jetspeed Portal Project | | Apache Pluto Portlet Container | *================================*
