Newbie questions

Hi all,

I'm new to the Jetspeed arena and have some newbie questions.

My company is thinking of deploying Jetspeed and I am doing some preliminary
investigation.  Going through the Jetspeed/Turbine website I couldn't find
information on user groupings and setup.  I was wondering if
Jetspeed/Turbine allows you to assign users, for example: per division and
then per department?  Basically with a hierarchy like this: Portal
Administrator -> Division Manager -> Department Manager -> user, where the
managers and admins can assign portlets and settings to users.

Another question that I have is are you allowed to insert a separate frame
for a custom menu between the header of the Jetspeed page and the portlets?

Any pointers, recommendations, and links to further documentation would be
greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
