Torsten - I understand JSR-286 - that tells portlet writers how to write new-style portlets.

I am curious for those of us who have portals based on Pluto 1.1.x - we wrote a bunch of code to make Pluto 1.x handle our JSR-168 support - things like preference store providers, user attribute providers, etc.

I will want to get Sakai to use the Pluto 2.x.x jars instead so our developers can write JSR-286 portlets in addition to JSR-168 portlets.

I am curious the kinds of new providers we need to build for the Pluto 2.x code. Another way to ask the question is - what kinds of changes were made to the Pluto out of the box portal's providers ?

I am sure that in time I will look at the code for the pluto reference portal - but a nice outline of what to look for would be a nice start.

And it is possible that there are relatively few new requirements on we portals - if all the new stuff like events, etc is all nicely handled by Pluto 2.x with no need for additional persistence handlers or what ever - that would be great. But I am guessing that there are a few new things that we portals must do.
