Here is my status:
* Update Jetspeed to the new Turbine User and ACL architecture: done
As I wrote in an earlier note, jetspeed now works with latest turbine,
but it doesn't take any advantage of the new security model so far.
(This is another task on the todo: "Incorporate Turbine ACL features in
Jetspeed")
I'm not happy with all the enrollment and login screens/actions, but I
don't think we should spend much time at this point, as they are gonna be
reworked in the templates anyway.
* Implement a customizer system for both the Portlets and the Portal Layout
Some of my colleagues have been working on this. There was/is much more
to do here, as we needed some sort of persistence mechanism in order to
write configuration data/psml files back to the disk...
Anyway, I understood that this work is almost done. The customizer will
be very basic, but still: it works and it is something that does it's job
(and can be improved later).
I'll explain this to you in more detail in a few days (there are some
other high priority jobs for me to first). We should discuss the changes on
the list next week so that hopefully I'll be able to commit the changes end
of next week or the one after that.

My JSP templates are only layout and navigations, I haven't fully replaced
ecs (screens). That's an item on the todo...
Raphael, I somewhere read following statement about the jars in turbine's
lib directory: "vleocity-0.4.jar: Atemplating engine that will soon replace
Webmacro." This was a posting of Cristopher Elkins on 17th, October - I'm
not sure if this is agreed upon by all turbine members, but if so, we
should probably use velocity instead of webmacro?

That's great! WAR support will solve many installing questions.
ingo.
