Status update: - Started the VOTE on WS-PMC. Will report back the results. - There's Portlet API jar (named pluto.jar) that is required by both Charon and Jetspeed-2. The Jetspeed-2 folks are working on it (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=jetspeed-dev&m=105949774325419&w=2).
Questions: - Is availability of pluto.jar file a Show Stopper for Charon? - If it is a show-stopper, how come it is ok for jetspeed-2 to have this dependency? - What else is required before Charon can be accepted for incubation?
