That's a great point, Colin.  Just like Tomcat can be a low-cost
alternative to WAS, I think Jetspeed could be a similar sort of interim
solution for Portal, especially since IBM still prices Portal in the
"two kidneys and a lung" range.

I hope to do some work with Jetspeed and report on it in further
articles.
