[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Re: WSRP with Portlet Container only

[jhalmes]

The JIRA priority got bumped down?!  I was doing my bi-annual check in on this requested feature and found that JBPORTAL-2186 is now optional?  I could have sworn it was high priority last time.

Apparently I'm the only person that wants to publish content from my application via WSRP standards without running a full portal, eh?  There has to be at least 2 of us since I didn't open the original JIRA issue.

Seriously, I don't view this as a "feature" as much as a "design requirement" of a portlet container.  Why should I have to run an entire portal server to serve up portlets via standards?  I thought that was the whole point of the portlet container project?  The Sun openportal and apache portlet container both included WSRP from the beginning so I've been expecting it to show up in the jboss container.

I was under the impression that this was going to be included in the "next version" of the portlet container but its been a year since I've been asking about this.  I'm guessing by the priority you're not crazy about WSRP as a standard?  Unfortunately I have a requirement so I'll have to choose between running the resource expensive portal just to server a single portlet which is really just a wrapper of an iframe back to my main app or switching to another server to host it.  I don't like either option.

What would you do?  I just need to be able to serve my content via WSRP to another portal.  Am I barking up the wrong tree?

As for paying you for support, it would depend on how much and how fast I could get the feature.  I'll send you $50 myself if you'll do it this week.  If that's not enough I could pass the hat around the dev team, how much would it take?  :)
