Two new articles are out bolstering the documentation on using JSR-170, the Java Content Repository API. The first is a practitioner's perspective which has an informative FAQ and the second is an in-depth look at versioning and observation using JackRabbit.
This week Roy Russo announced the creation of the Portlet Repository Protocol (PRP) which seeks to create a common web service API that can be used to communicate with portlet repositories. This would allow any portal vendor to browser repositories and download/update portlets like developers currently do when browsing/installing/updating plugins for their IDE of choice.
