Subject:	[Digi-developer] greetings - JSR168 compatibility strategy?
Greetings -=20

A numer of folks are working on architecture for agricultural and =
environmental decision support portal, outlined at: =
http://iserver1.ciat.cgiar.org/mms/CGIAR_prop.html . We are working with =
the folks of http://www.earthsystemgrid.org for the 'heavy lifting' =
computationally, and folks like: http://www.fews.net and =
http://www.pecad.fas.usda.gov/cropexplorer/ for foundation data feeds.

Our initial thoughts were to build out on either the eXo platform, =
http://www.exoplatform.org, or follow along with the new JBoss portal =
effort. But clearly working with you guys has a lot of advantages, in =
that you have thought through the JAAS and multisite/multilingual =
aspects a lot more than anyone else.

Is there any strategy for writing digi TILE applications in such a way =
that they might also be JSR 168 compliant, and/or that the TILE engine =
might some day also support portlets?  Or are these two concepts =
unreconcilable?

thanks -=20

Chris:

Many thanks for your email that touches upon a subject of great and =
increasing
interest to us.  I am currently traveling and cannot quickly access the =
websites that you mentioned, but even so, I can assure you that the =
issues of
strengthening capacity for decentralized and independent monitoring of
environmental and natural resources management is a significant priority =
area
for many of our projects in this area.

Since I am traveling, I would recommend that - while you are in =
Washington next week - you try to set up an appointment with my =
colleague Robert Kirmse
(202-458-8509, rk...@wo...), who has a good professional =
knowledge and understanding of forest inventory and monitoring systems.

I would also be interested personally in learning more about your =
activities and proposals in this area, so I would appreciate you keeping =
me in the loop.

Best regards,

Andrey
