Re: Features of cocoon
Thank you for the reply. Please address my concerns mentioned below. I have multiple applications which require logon. I want to make sure if the user logs on one application he does not have to log on again till he logsout. I want to port all the applications to cocoon. Just want to make sure that cocoon has this feature of single sign on available. Also for personalization I want to have differnt porlets for different users. And change the look and the feel of pages just like we do in my.yahoo.com. Regarding adding new pages if I have to add a new page to cocoon does it apply lot of development. Our idea of moving to a portal server is to be able to add new functionality to our portal easily(in less time). Thanks, Anna.

Obviously you have to do a little bit to get it running as you have to pass the login information from one application (or from the single login point) to the other applications. Also for personalization I want to have differnt porlets for different users. This is supported. And change the look and the feel of pages just like we do in my.yahoo.com. Yes, this is easy by just using different stylesheets for the look and feel. Regarding adding new pages if I have to add a new page to cocoon does it apply lot of development. No, I think this doesn't require more effort than it would in other portal servers. Our idea of moving to a portal server is to be able to add new functionality to our portal easily(in less time). This is of course difficult to answer :) I personally think that the cocoon portal is very flexible and allows you to change every detail if the need arises. In addition it's very easy to plugin new functionality. And once you know how things work, it's easy to develop such extensions.

Re: Features of cocoon
Thank you very much for the answers. One other quick question. The support of CMS in cocoon. Has anyone tried it ? I was reading about the Lenya project by apache built on cocoon. Can Lenya and cocoon portal server be integrated to use the WYSIWYG editor?
