Can anyone give me a quick overview of the config files currently in use
for JetSpeed 2.0?  

For example, I have the following questions after having investigated 
the config, starting from the web.xml:

1.  The web.xml references jetspeed-configuration.xml.  Is this
the location of a XML config database that will be created?
Or is this a leftover config item that is no longer being used?

Not used. The ideas was that you could bootstrap Jetspeed with a 
properties file or XML configuration. Only the properties file was 
actually put into use. We've moved almost all configuration already from 
commons configuration to Spring, but there are still a few configuration 
settings in jetspeed.properties


I see no jetspeed-configuration.xml in either the binary or source 
distributions.
2.  In the jetspeed.properties file, there is an entry:
   deployment.descriptor.mapping.xml=
/WEB-INF/conf/portletdefinitionmapping.xml

The portletdefinitionmapping.xml only appears in the archives castor directory;
is it obsolete?
again, thats left over from the days when we used commons configuration.
Look to the spring configurations under WEB-INF/assembly for component 
configuration


Thanks, need help fast!

Thanks David - that clears up a lot of questions!  
Could you tell me which items are still being configured
via the jetspeed.properties?

thats a documentation task in itself and im sure it will lead to more 
questions

these are still used:
* log4j properties location
* default pipeline
* autodeployment substitution
* jndi flag
* supported portletmodes, windowsstates
* navigation state prefix
* location of assembly directory for Spring

David - I really appreciate your timely responses to these questions.  
Due to very tight timelines on our project, your feedback is extremely 
valuable.  I think I'm very close to knowing all the configuration 
items I need to accomplish our goals.  If you like, I can send you my
configuration document when completed; maybe you can reuse some sections
when you document the official release.   

Thanks again,
\MR
