Couldn't figure out how to post to either blog or the forum, so I'm responding here :-)

I noticed a couple of worries. First of all: authentication. JSPWiki supports the JAAS authentication scheme out-of-the-box, so you can use whatever you have built-in already. In addition, our authentication system is fully pluggable, so you can just write a plugin to your own code.

The other worry mentioned was that there would be one global namespace for all users. This is true for the stock jspwiki installation (we're working on it!), but if you are embedding, you have several choices ranging from using JSPWiki just as a rendering engine (and providing the page repository by yourself - might be good if you already have a storage system) to spawning a new WikiEngine instance for each of your user areas. So embedders do have a bit more freedom than people who just install it.

Anyway, practically all of the internal modules can be overridden via configuration, so you do have quite a lot of flexibility in figuring out just the right level of integration to your app!

To follow on Janne's reply on Liferay integration, I am sending a few links
to recent discussions in Liferay's forums and blogs where JSPWiki gets
mentioned.

(Hopefully get a little cross-pollination started between the developer
communities of each project)

Jorge Ferrer's started blog re: wiki engines - esp. JSPWiki:

(Janne btw: I took your advise and mentioned the Apache Incubator status in
this one)

Original Liferay Forum posting:

If anyone in the JSPWiki community can contribute to those discussions, it
would be appreciated.

Cheers!
