Is Jetspeed a good solution?

Hello,

We have determined that Jetspeed is a candidate for use as our portal. This
determination was made by:

1. It was quickly implemented and tailored for a demonstration.

2. There is a migration path to a commercial portal. JetSpeed's API was the
basis for WebSphere. Should there ever be a need for a commercial portal, a
conversion to Websphere is feasible.

3. The activity in this mailing list is indicative of possible support.

Firstly does this make senses? As well, is there anything else one should
consider?

I also wish to quickly identify any gotchas in the use of Jet Speed as
portal for a business. We are targeting Jetspeed as a possible solution for
different user groups: 100's, 1000's 10,000's of users. Where does jetspeed
top out on load, and what productions sites are actually using JetSpeed?

Also, please indicate any major plus' or minus' on the use of Jetspeed.

Thank you.

Stephen
