[gatein-dev] Favicon - Request for comments (and suggestions)

All, We have a request to display a specific favicon for JBoss Portal, and it seems there's no "easy" (or correct) solution in place for that right now. The first intuitive solution would be to override the templates, to make them link to the desired favicon. This doesn't scales, as the whole template is duplicated and it will only cause headaches in the future. The second possible solution would be to incorporate the path to the favicon into the properties file, but this means having a fixed path to the favicon, which is a step backwards from what there is today: in one of the templates for /portal, it gets the favicon for the context path, so, if the current portal is /example-portal, it currently gets the favicon at /example-portal/favicon . With the favicon coming from the properties file, this would not be the case anymore, as all favicons would be coming from a fixed path. The third solution would be to build a FaviconService, that would take care of determining the proper favicon path. It sounds to me that this is a bit of overkill, but would be a clean solution. Of course, the best option would be to be possible to override the favicon from /portal, but this doesn't seems to be possible at the moment. It seems that only templates are overriden. Before proceeding with the third solution (which seems the most desirable as of now), I would like to get your comments, opinions and suggestions on how this could be better handled. Best Regards, Juca.
