Hi there,

Well, I have installed jetspeed and it runs fine, I have never used it 
before, so I guess I will look at the
samples that are included in the distribution.. but I agree that it looks 
powerful, and not too trivial to configure
the right way.
I'll just mess around with it, tie it to a MySQL database, and get back to 
you as soon as I have something
to show ;-) (If that's still what we want to do)

Even though I am more interested in being involved in JOS 'itself' in the 
long run, but one has to start
somewhere!
