My questions are: JetSpeed is cool. Jahia I haven't used yet. Now that the JSR Portlet Specification (http://www.jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/review/jsr168/) is final, I would write the custom portlets in java to be compatible with this specification. That way you maintain the java portability, ability to move between containers. You know the big players (Websphere, Weblogic, Oracle) are all going to support this spec very quickly. What would the counter argument be? ColdFusion has more tags built in and is therefore more productive? That could be true. So if you're in a crunch, that may be a good choice.
