Re: JForum

Hi Stéphane,
 I need a little help. I have the JSR-168 version pulled from CVS. Before I 
start merging changes, I want to build a deployable portlet. Could you help 
me with that? You said you tested against Jetspeed2, right? I deploying into 
a pluto-based portlet container, and its looking for a 'portlet.xml' file 
... not sure where this would be or how it would get generated.
 Ant doesn't appears to build the project in the directory structure its in 
at the moment (at least not outside of JBuilder).
 I would certainly appreciate any help, I think you've done some great work 
in moving JForum to JSR-168 and I would love to help out, but I need to get 
it packaged as a deployable portlet first!!
 Thanks!
 Brice
