I think this becomes a chicken and egg sort of proposal. We can't play
with using WSRP if uPortal doesn't support it. Some of our long term
plans involve using WSRP to consume PeopleSoft Student Administration
modules from within uPortal.
 
Our problem to date has been getting PeopleTools environment up the
most current version that allows it to produce WSRP. WSRP was working
(at least in our initial, non-in-depth review of it) in previous
versions of uPortal. We might have revisit those plans for the coming
year now. I do understand about priorities for the core team though, and
fully appreciate WSRP being so much buzz for at least two years now. We
sure thought we'd be using it way before now.

Thomas,

WSRP production and even consumption support has been de-scoped from
the 
initial uPortal 3 release.

I'd be very interested in hearing exactly what you're looking to 
accomplish with WSRP in uPortal 3.  A problem with WSRP support in 
uPortal is that significant effort has historically been poured into 
this for very little real value.  uPortal 3 will almost certainly 
initially ship without WSRP support.  There's no reason this support 
cannot be soon added post-3.0 if there's real interest and effort or 
resources applied to make it happen.  But for that to happen, it's
going 
to have to stop being a buzzword the project chases and start being 
something of real value to production uPortal deployers.

testing with the RC2-SNAPSHOT. Also any documentation on how to setup a
producer in 3.0? Would this be part of the portal or would this be
configured with setup files of some sort?
