Yes because that's what you are building, a portal. So what we provide is a set of services to use and *extend* to make that happen. I hope i'm clear :) We won't build a full fledge portal designed for everybody. That's not possible, it doesn't exist. Everybody has his own set of requirements. What is needed is a correct stack of framework to build on top. Think AS+Portal+Seam for example. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4130725#...
