There's no need for 1 big "JSF-thumbs-up" portal that can't focus on the end-user cause it might piss off some developers. The JSF also doesn't have to pay someone to build a BSD licensed portal, if we want one we can build one can't we? There's already several projects underway that, for example, work on forum intergration.Micheal talked about a JSF geek that would create an offial client, not a portal ;)
IMO there is a need for a 'JSF-thumbs-up'-portal. The current jabber.org site is great for geeks and/or Jabber developers but not for the complete newbie. There is just too much technical info there and too little step by step instructions. So either there has to be some kind of 'help the newbie'-section on jabber.org or there has to be some kind of end-users jabber portal. A few of my friends went to jabber.org after I talked enthousiastically about Jabber but quite a few of them just gave up after going to jabber.org. Just too much and too detailed info there. People don't want to read a 20 page userguide, they want something to download and that's about it :D
Cheers,
