Creating WSRP portlet with .net

Question

I'm working on a project where I need to create a WSRP portlet webservice with ASP.net.

My first question is what exactly is WSRP, and are there any good examples of it available? So far I have determined that it is a SOAP xml standard that defines how to create a portlet that can be embedded in an other portal. Is that correct?

Also I was planning on using MVC to do this. Is this a good idea?

Any thoughts on WSRP are welcome. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what it is and how to create it.

Answer 1

WSRP was created not only to reuse backend code on different platforms, but to reuse some or all user interfase.
