I've heard this on the Turbine list also, but I don't see it. We are running
multiple turbine applications in the same zone and also in different zones.
The only issue is authentication/autorization, and that is only when you are
in different zones ( your session doesn't pass between zones under
jserv/tomcat ). There has been talk of potential solutions to this also. I
think it is very clean to run multiple turbine applications concurrently, and
have. Actually, jetspeed itself is a turbine application, then the admin
application within jetspeed is a turbine application also. They both run
"concurrently" within the same zone: no problem.

Wrong, this is totally extensible, even without coding: using a template
language. Currently this is one of the best frameworks I've seen for web
applications.
I know I just responded to a portion of your message, but it was all I really
could offer of substance. We see Turbine growing stronger than ever, and
forsee alot more applications based on it in the future. It was designed for
programming ease and expandability. It is serving us nicely.
just another 3 cents.
