Hi, Currently I am developing java webapps using spring-mvc. I would like to add a protlet feature to my webapps (something similar to Jira's homepage).

Can you recommend a software which will give me this feature?

Since I am already using spring-mvc,I would rather use a third party instead of a new framework.

Spring has portlet support, so you can continue using it as the framework. As for a portlet container - I'd recommend Liferay.

you link to spring docs v2.0 you should at least link to 2.5.x

You should use spring portlets. It's very similar to spring mvc.

But make sure that you use Spring framework V3+ to have portlet 2.0 support. Otherwise you don't have events etc.

As Portlet container/portal you might want to have a look at liferay which is pretty good looking or software like jboss portal server which needs a nicer theme but is (IMHO) better structured in the inside. (Might end up in less pain) ;-)
