Sounds like there are at least three of us now. (I think) Kevin said last week
he wanted to just save customized portlet markup in the filesystem until we can
work out a comfy XML<->DB arrangement.
This should be saved in a private directory (ie, the webserver has read/write
permissions but it is not accessible via HTTP URL).
One idea is to put check boxes next to the items in the PortletBrowser and make
an HTML form. This should be implemented however with "standalone" mode (ie not
running as a servlet) in mind. Somehow, this form is processed and a
customized defaultPortlets is written for the user. This file is then fed to
the PortletController when a user logs in.
We also want to add a portlet "state" to the config options. This means that
the user can set the level of detail for portlets. For efficiency's sake, we
should make this a global option first, then add the ability to select a state
for each individual portlet once we have a better way of storing the info (this
could be a pulldown menu next to the checkbox).
Does that help? :P
