Cedric Beust reports on what he calls the SunOne/.Net Smackdown that took place yesterday out in Silicon Valley. As you may know, planning is underway for a similar shootout here in the Triangle.

BasicPortal

Comments[2] by Dave in Java

The goal of this [BasicPortal] project is to leverage a combination of several of the Apache Foundation's Jakarta projects into a simple vertical sample application that contains the functionality common to 80% of web projects -- we let developers customize the last 20%.

On the Struts mailing list, somebody asked for Struts-based CMS and Basic Portal was the answer. BasicPortal aims to be a best practices sample app, so I'm going to take a close look at the persistence layer.
