1) yes, as long as you are aware of what you are doing
2) it does not change much, except that maybe for you it is easier to ship or 
backup
3) what does it mean ? the file is always yours
4) 
5) no, you should customize the jsps
6) I think best idea would be to do something similar to the header / tabs 
which are using JSP and are injected in the theme 
(http://docs.jboss.com/jbportal/v2.6.2/referenceGuide/html/themeandlayouts.html)
7) you cannot, hot redeploying only happens at the deploy level, you cannot hot 
redeploy a nested deployable

[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Re: JBoss Portal : Best Practices

[syllant]

Nobody to answer to these relevant questions ?

Seems to me that best approch would consist in building another SAR for 
specific needs, but as far as I understand, you have to override some files 
inside core modules to get a portal really customized. Examples :

- META-INF/jboss-service.xml to customize header pages, error pages, ... 
(otherwise, override default files)
- portal-cms.sar/META-INF/jboss-service.xml to customize CMS
- portal-server.war/*.jsp for authentication
- etc.

I am setting up my first project with JBP. I've decided to override default 
files which needs changes (these files are externalized inside custom modules 
in SVN) and to create a SAR which stores all files specific to our portal : 
custom portlets, theme, layout, ...

But I'm not totally satisfied with this approch (and its implementation with 
Maven) : I wish I could customize a portal without changing default 
configuration.

How do you resolve this ?

Thanks.
