Thanks! Sure.
You are definitely correct in that Jetspeed does a lot more than that :) What is important I think is the scope of the dashboard application and functionality: - As a container for independent (and possibly yet unknown) widget (mini) applications, so the dashboard will stand on its own. Then you're probably going to need a "hot" plug/deploy/undeploy etc. model allowing the end user to setup their own configuration. - Or as one big application which provides a lot of widgets predefined out-of-the-box, and the end user only has to "activate" them. For the latter solution, you probably want to expand on the "modal window" feature from Matej as you already indicated. For the first solution, your beginning to get close to (one of the main features) portals provide out of the box, especially concerning the independent lifecycle management of the widgets/portlets. You might not need a full-blown portal, but maybe you should consider adapting one. Note: Jetspeed is *very* customizable, so maybe you can also trim it down/tailor it to just what you need.
