Ate Douma commented on PLUTO-588:
---------------------------------

Hi Robert,

First of all, you are correct that with the new Pluto 2.x release only the full bundle (Pluto Portal+Tomcat) is provided.
The release procedure and configuration has been cleaned up a lot, and in that process building those other distributions somehow "got lost".
I'm not totally sure why, but I think and assume it is because foremost pluto is intended to be integrated in other portal solutions which is primarily done by through maven-2 artifact dependency configurations.
All pluto artifacts are also available from Maven 2 Central repository too.

The current getting started page better be updated sometime soon to indicate this of course.

BTW: if you need only yhe pluto container artifacts, these are of course also embedded of the bundle distribution and can easily be extracted from it.

With regard to reporting such "issues" like these, the usual and better place to do that would be on the pluto user mailing list, see: http://portals.apache.org/pluto/mail-lists.html
The fact that the getting started site is no longer correct imo is a valid issue to report through JIRA though, although it probably could use a better subject.
As such, I'll update this issue to better reflect describe this, and it should remain open until the getting started page is update/fixed.

>             Project: Pluto
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: documentation, general, portlet container
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
>         Environment: Irrelevant, since this is filed against the Pluto Site, not Pluto itself
>            Reporter: Robert Brown III

> On the Getting Started page of the Pluto site (http://portals.apache.org/pluto/v20/getting-started.html) there are a number of distributions mentioned, including the pluto-current-bundle (Pluto bundled with Tomcat) , pluto-current-bin (the Pluto libraries and portal), pluto-current-container-bin (the Pluto Container libraries), and pluto-current-src (the source code). 
> Unfortunately, when attempting to download, it seems that only the bundle and the source are available. The pluto-current-bin and (most importantly for me)  pluto-current-container-bin are apparently not on any mirrors.
> It would be appreciated if someone would make these distributions available, or please correct/expand what is on the Getting Started page..
> Please note: this is put here as a bug because I could find nowhere else to report this problem. I am unaware of any other avenues of contact concerning matters other than this bug- reporting system. I am uncertain if this is the right place to report this problem, but I cannot find a more appropriate place. 
> If such a place exists, then please point me to it so that I can eliminate this bug report.
