Re: What is the Status of Jetspeed 2 ??

The rules here is that we avoid HEAD breakage at all costs even when 
the project is not deemed stable yet by our
release numbering. CVS HEAD should always compile and work as well as 
possible for a product under development.

If you encounter any issue building Jestpeed 1 or 2 CVS HEAD, don't 
hesitate to raise the issue, it will get fixed ASAP.

Well. I checked it first out, then tried to compile it and there was 
some problems with missing files. I updated the
project only 15 minutes from original checkout and there were some new 
files that were missing during compilation.

It was just that i managed to check out the project when there was 
comming in progress. CVS is not atomic and it causes problems like this 
sometimes. After update it worked just great and is still running 
without interruption.

I concur with Raphaël.  I have a project that is based on J2 and it is
currently running in a production environment.

  Is Jetspeed 2 released ?  When will it be released ?
 
 
 Jetspeed 2 has a M1 release available, with a M2 release soon.
 
  Is the 'M1' release a production release or is it Alfa or Beta ?
 
 
 Formally, it's an alpha release because M1 is not feature
 complete compared to the target feature list of J2 and some of
 the design of J2 may be changed until we reach a 1.0 status.
 (for example, there's a huge effort underway to streamline the
 auto-deployment code).
 
 Now, even in its current status, J2 is very useable for
 development work if you want a pure, lean and mean, portal
 server.
 If what you need is just JSR168 support in a full-featured
 stable portal, consider using Jetspeed 1 with Fusion.
 Currently, you'll need to get the current CVS for this since
 Jetspeed 1.6 is not out yet (should be formally released soon).

A portlet selector (customizer) will be included in M2.
I recently wrote a prototype popup portlet selector with satisfying 
results.

That's great news. We(so are the many JS1.5 users, I hope) are so used
to the deployment using the customizer in JS1.5 since it is quite
handy.

Raphaël - hoping you can help out here - which version would you 
recommend for a project with the following requirements?

- JSR 168 compliance
- minimal inter portlet communication (most like done via PortletSession)
- basic rendering requirements; using RequestDispatcher to JSPs with 
embedded XSLT
- needs to be robust, being used in a demo in 1 month.

J2 should be more than stable enough to handle theses requirements.
Also note that the JSR168 support in Jetspeed 1.6 will actually be 
provided through Fusion... which embeds a Jetspeed 2 instance inside
Jetspeed 1 !

Raphaël - hoping you can help out here - which version would you 
recommend for a project with the following requirements?

- JSR 168 compliance
Works ok.
- minimal inter portlet communication (most like done via PortletSession)
Works ok.
- basic rendering requirements; using RequestDispatcher to JSPs with 
embedded XSLT
Don't know about this.
- needs to be robust, being used in a demo in 1 month.

I have demo system with 1 month continuous uptime and it is checked out 
from cvs/HEAD. That tells you something about how stabe it is currently. 
Of course with bit bad luck you manage to check out something that does 
not work from HEAD like me at first time. I just updated the project 
again and noticed there was cvs comming just going on when i checked 
out. So there was incomplete version in.

If you don't need fancy portlets for modifying your portal from portal 
itself, Jetspeed-2 already works just fine. Only
problem is that you need to modify all the xml files and deploy your 
portlets directly in jetspeed deployment directory
with other tools.

On some pages I have experienced problems getting into edit mode. You 
need to minimize/maximize and then restore
the portlet to get edit mode icon to appear. Bit annoying but I am sure 
they get it fixed before final version.
