Thomas,

We would be very happy to talk with you about getting WSRP support into uPortal 3. I would really like to see at a minimum WSRP Consumer support in uPortal 3 but as we discussed earlier the time to implement is the road block for us. I believe there will be some folks in contact directly to talk about this further but I'm excited that you're interested in working with us on getting WSRP support in uPortal.

Andrew,

I had posted an email from the forum to you describing my current role and 
project scope focusing on uPortal and WSRP.

I thought I would also post up the information here to the forum to enlighten 
all that were kind enough to answer my initial posting about the uPortal 
time-line and WSRP support. I am hopeful that I can start a dialog with you or 
one of your colleagues working on uPortal to convince them that WSRP support is 
needed and to also offer my help in moving toward that goal.

My company, Trident Systems, Inc. is currently working with the Department of 
Homeland security to create a portal network for first-responders. This portal 
network would use a base portal server, portlets, WSRP, UDDI, and some type of 
authorization mechanism, i.e. SAML, XACML, etc.

The code base has to be open source, and hence the focus on uPortal as a 
solution. We are looking to architect this system with an enterprise level 
portal server with an active and open source code base.

The main reason uPortal was being looked at was the JSR-168 and WSRP support 
listed as being part of the 3.0 release. Now that I know WSRP support will not 
be part of the initial 3.0 release, I was wondering if I could start a dialog 
with you gentlemen about adding this support in a post 3.0 release and what 
areas if any myself and my colleagues may help.

I noted a few folks who were posting and commenting about the WSRP support from 
my previous posting and was wondering if you or any of them would be so kind as 
to contact me individually so that I can explain in more detail where our 
project is focusing on and to possibly understand where or if we could help.

My contact information is:

Thomas S. Pangborn Senior Software Engineer
Trident Systems, Inc.
Phone : 919.439.0468

Thanks again and I look forward to talking with you in the near future.

Thomas
