Sorry, I've been working with uPortal, and managed to blend Jetspeed and 
uPortal in my head. What I meant is that if you unpack the JAR (sorry, my first 
instinct with any archive is to unpack it), the immediately visible 
documentation is for a completely different project.

No, this is mostly me not reading the documentation on the website, and so 
trying to unpack rather than run the installer, or I would have got into this 
confusion. I figured out later on what I'd done wrong, should have sent an 
update e-mail, apologies. Still, it would be good if the documentation in the 
top directory of the JAR was for Jetspeed, and any other project's 
documentation was kept elsewhere. Does that make more sense?
