Hello,
as always, there is a problem with URLs. This time - forums and blog. Of course, links to
posts should be permanent. To make the really permanent throughout the changing Portal and
Labs site, I suppose they have to be of the form:
http://www.jboss.org/forums?aaa=bbb.
On the other hand, it would be best to have the possibility that each project can have a
forums/blog portlet on the project page (maybe even several of such portlets), displaying
their specific forum, for example. However, links in such portlets have to contain
information about which page the portlet is on, at least. And we won't be able to keep
such links permanent for sure.
There are several approaches to solve that:
* do it like it is with our Wiki - have only one forums/blog portlet, and links would
always point there; however, this won't enable projects to have a true forums/blog
portlet on a project page (that is, a portlet which wouldn't be only a link to the
"big" portlet)
* have [permalink] links next to each post link etc. This solves the problem, but requires
more care and intelligence from the user.
* another way? Hold the "last selected page" in user's sessions attributes?
But that would disable browsing two projects at one time and them having multiple portlets
of the same kind on one page. But this also requires special redirects for forums and is
not so nice ;).
