<p class="Body" style="margin-left: 18pt;">The project is currently in the <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/">Apache Incubator.</a> The more there will be interest for Pluto, the better the chances are to see it as an Apache Jakarta within a short period of time.</p>
<p class="Body" style="margin-left: 18pt;">Pluto is the
portlet container that is used in the official
Reference Implementation for the <a
href="http://java.sun.com/products/servlets">Java
Portlet</a> technologies</p>
<p class="Body" style="margin-left: 18pt;">Portlets are a
special kind of
servlets that are designed to run in the context of a portal. They are
written
to the Portlet API which extends the Servlet API. </p>
<p class="Body" style="margin-left: 18pt;">In contrast to
servlets, portlets may
not do things like sending redirects or errors to browsers directly,
forwarding
requests or writing arbitrary markup to the output stream to assure
that they
don’t distract the portal web application which uses them. Another
difference
compared to servlets is that portlets rely on portal specific
infrastructure
functions such as access to user profile information, standard
interface for
storing/retrieving persistent settings, getting client information, etc.</p>
<p class="Body" style="margin-left: 18pt;">Generally,
portlets are administrated
more dynamically than servlets typically are. Portlet applications
consisting
of several portlets can be installed and removed using the WPS
administration
UI while the portal server is running. There is no requirement to stop
the
whole portal server web application. In a similar manner, the settings
of a
portlet can be changed by an administrator with appropriate access
rights at
any time without stopping/restarting the portal server web application.
<br>
</p>
<p class="Body" style="margin-left: 18pt;">A portlet
container provides a runtime
environment for portlets implemented according to the Portlet API. In
this
environment portlets can be instantiated, used and finally destroyed.
The
portlet container is not a stand-alone container like the servlet
container;
instead it is implemented as a thin layer on top of the servlet
container and
reuses the functionality provided by the servlet container.</p>
