HttpServletRequest is an interface in the servlet spec. Implementations of that (by a servlet container) provide a high-level API for getting at the underlying HTTP request parameters, etc. There is no "parsing" per se. A portlet container sits on top of a servlet container and is one level of abstraction higher. You give up direct control of the HTTP response and get away from accessing the HttpServletRequest. Jetspeed 2 does work but there is no official release yet. Go to: http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/getting-started.html Follow the instructions to install using the maven plugin, it is pretty straight-forward.
