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.
