Hi Michael, The idea was to add hippo as a component and use their webapp as an interim CMS while we build out similar functionality in OFBiz. OFBiz would use the JCR API to interact with the underlying repository.
In terms of progress... none. In my spare time I'll be playing around with a jackrabbit integration for OFBiz and reading all the articles I can find. I feel like I need to better understand the JCR and content models in general before doing anything concrete.
