[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Portal] - Re: User Portlet Discussion

[anders3]

Sounds great to me
"lost password" is very relevant..

Just remember that the old portlet "is already out there"
Somebody are using it as it is today.
These people will not get happy one day suddenly to see changed features. (Even that the features are better!!!!)

So it might be a good idea to 
1) keep the old one, and isolate it (own war?)
2) create two new portlets with the features you suggest.

At my current job we are discussing making new software by changing old software. As buying a new car. Only few would suggest to build it on top an old rusty car. It might often be better and give less problems to just write new code :-)
