There is a Developer's Guide and a How-To-Write-A-Portlet Guide on the
website
http://java.apache.org/jetspeed
They are both works in progress. Im updating them when I have time, which I
haven't had much of lately.
Any help, even a little chapter on say the NewRSSPortlet, FileServerPortlet
or whatever area you have worked with and understand.
Working examples of your psml, jcfg would be great. Send them in and we can
incorporate it in the guides.
This is a group effort you know
