[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Portal] - Plan to improve CMS integration

[julien@jboss.com]

In order to improve the CMS integration on the following points :

1/ more decouple the CMS from the portal
2/ improve the integration of content into portal pages

We should handle content at the portal object level. Today a portal window is implicitely a window that points to a portlet.

It is possible to make the Window agnostic of portlets and introduce to sub interfaces PortletWindow and ContentWindow.

PortletWindow would contain the String reference to the portlet instance and ContentWindow would contain an URI that would point to the CMS content.

This way admins would not have to configure the CMS portlet that points to the appropriate content.

I would like to perform that change for the beta release.
