You have to hack. First change the resource in
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/jetspeed.xml to use mysql, copy
mysql db driver to endorsed dir of course, and then I guess you have to
hack on the OJB settings in
$CATALINA_HOME/webapp/jetspeed/WEB-INF/classes. (?) I think this is more
difficult than building from source and let the j2 maven plugin take
care of everything for you.

Then you can easily use the j2:portal.genapp goal to create a customized
jetspeed portal with maven + eclipse support. ;-)

Look at the decorator documentation. Using maven this could easily be
setup as a separate module. Also look into the
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/jetspeed/WEB-INF/decorations directory for the
structure.
