There is an example of using a web service in Jetspeed: the StockQuote portlet. It is written as an example of how easy it is to integrate SOAP with a portlet, and it is not tied to any framework, just Java code. I started integrating Axis into Jetspeed a while back, but never finished it. It would be great if someone could write a sample web service portlet using Axis. Axis makes it a lot easier and less error prone than writing the tedious SOAP structures yourself as in the StockQuote portlet example.
