Hmm.. I didn't know that WebSphere was inspired from
JetSpeed..

I had been thinking for the longest time about whether
to abandon Struts for portal development and start
using JetSpeed. This was due to the fact that I didn't
know any portal server that is based on Struts. I like
Struts, but yet without a portal platform that is
built on top of it I can't do too much. Liferay seems
to work for me since it is a portal server based on
Struts. You still set all your action mappings in
struts-config.xml. So it should be pretty easy to
learn for Struts users.

How would you compare JetSpeed and Liferay?
