This is probably the simplest technique, but I'm not particularly happy about using a multi-stage build process. I would rather have an encapsulated jar that I can drop into my project that has no outside dependencies. I read that there is an option to override properties, which seems to help out a lot -- but the main question is how susceptible will I be to upgrades in the jetspeed source if I follow this method? >>You can build the jetspeed.jar and drop that in your portal's web-inf\lib directory. >>If that is what you mean by a encapsulated jar. >>If you have a future release of jetspeed then as long as all your templates, action >>classes, skins, property files are separate...it does not matter..You should be >>easily able to overlay your stuff on top of base jetspeed framework. > You might be able to remove some things (like directories and maybe even > some jars) by commenting out services in the Jetspeed and Turbine > properties files. > Experiment with services by turning them on and off in JetspeedProperties > and Turbine properties. > A lot of services have configurations options defined for them that point > to particular directory under WEB-INF for example. > If you will not use services like: jcm, ocs or any of the publishing/rss > related once might as well get rid of the directories and services that > support them.

Are you talking about the technique at http://jakarta.apache.org/jetspeed/site/override_props.html for overriding properties? >>Yeah this is the site about overriding property files and it works just fine.
