It extends FileWatchPortlet.

It does it on the fly and it runs not in application mode - amazon, yahoo,
our intranet site, all that runs as portlet being part of a personalized
portal site at the same time - otherwise we wouldn't have that a big issue
with name clashes/base URLs and so on. It works all quite well, but still we
have problems, e.g. when navigating more than one portlet. When you do that,
you lose your navigational path when you navigate another portlet - in the
portlet you navigated first you see the orginal page defined in the
registry. That's due to the fact, that a portlet has no consciousness. The
redirection through the AdvancedFileServer is done using a request parameter
- for Jetspeed the displayed content is still the page defined inside the
registry. That might be another issue for the porlet API: User/Portlet
specific consciousness per session.

I just joined your discussion and need some time to catch up with you guys
on the portlet API (what you have talked about/settled on in the past) -
right now our project doesn't give me much time, so I just can contribute
problems and our part-solutions (see also RE: Portlet API - Portlet
communication and portlet chaining/pipelining).
