That looks like a really useful planning page! I think this might also serve as a good guide when we're brainstorming ideas of new content to develop.

Since we don't actually have most of those channels written at the moment, I've put up a new page alongside it with a list of what channels currently exist in the default uportal installation, as well as a short list of the kinds of things I was thinking we might realistically be able to add for the 3.0 release. In particular, I was thinking we could replace some of the older RSS feeds with newer, more interesting RSS feeds and perhaps some JA-SIG news.

You know... it's true we don't have many of the channels/portlets Gary has suggested, but...

If we think of the default layout as a Demo layout, it can also paint the vision of what a University portal *could* look like. I think a few HTML stubs that demonstrate "you could plug in your grades here" with a nice little box explaining what it is would be perfectly appropriate, and serve to demonstrate the usefulness of portals in general.

In fact, I think a few stub HTML pages with pretty mockups (and a tagline that says *this portlet doesn't exist yet, email portlets-dev to work on starting it*) would be a much better demonstration of the usefulness of CWebproxy/WebproxyPortlet/iFrame and the CPD functionality than the Tomcat number guess.
