The Portal Manager is now able to handle custom portlet modes and window states. They
can be configured in the
portlet.xml file.
The standard Web Service for Remote Portlets (WSRP) defines how remote portlets can be made available and included via web services. The Portal Manager is able to make use of such services. For this, it can be configured as a WSRP consumer.
The Portal Manager now also supports access to user data by means of
getUserPrincipal() and isUserInRole(String) of the servlet and
portlet requests. Furthermore, the javax.portlet.PortletRequest.USER_INFO
attribute is available if user properties have been configured
