Wayne, Jetspeed and Ibm portlets are trying to make a portlet Api standard, but the versions are diferent one from the other. In one you extend a class. On the other you implement an interface. Second you don´t have any turbine service or the easy way of the doAnyThing on your actions answering your submits. Ibm implements the doView, doCustomize, doMaximize, doMinimize, and they do not use the RunData, or anything that has to do with the user management, user security, roles, etc. You can´t use velocity on your templates. So by now, they aren´t so similiar, as any other portlet-portal known by me. I think Jetspeed an IBM, has a lot of API architecture in common, but not of implementation facts. I think that they will be much more similar when Jetspeed doesn´t use Turbine any more.

I see that they have a portlet-api.jar which contains org.apache.jetspeed.portlets.PortletAdaptor. I've not been able to find anything similar in the jetspeed distribution. What I'm trying to do is determine if a portlet written with WebSphere will run under a plain jetspeed implementation. Right now it looks like the answer is no unless the developer is careful to not allow the WebSphere IDE to generate the specific classes (like PortletAdaptor) which are not in the jetspeed implementation. Does any one know if the package org.apache.jetspeed.portlets exist as well as the PortletAdaptor class?
