The major changes are:

- In addition to the action and render phases, there's a new "event"
phase where portlets can communicate. These events are subscribed and
published using some sort of QName/XML naming feature, and receiving
the events happen between the action and render phase.
- A portlet can now serve resources with resource requests. This
(probably) means that portlets can generate binary content, and
benefit from the portal server authentication/authorization mechanism.
If I have understood this feature correctly, it means that several
more of the result types can be supported.
- Portlet filter support, which means we can add support for things
like SiteMesh, if someone needs that (although SiteMesh and the portal
server itself kind of overlaps...)
- Public render parameters that is a "lightweight" form of portlet
communication.
- Some annotations supported for marking portlet methods as lifecycle methods.
