MyPortal
... professional open source J2EE web portal system ... ...

Brief Introduction
MyPortal is an open source Java/ J2EE web portal system (JSR 168 compliant). It is a fork of the Liferay Enterprise Portal. We aim to build a non-EJB version of the Liferay Enterprise Portal that can be run in a standalone servlet container such as Tomcat.

CVS vs. New Developer

CVS (Concurrent Versioning System)
 
Developers only work & test with their local version.
 
Here is the cycle of what a typical open source developer does...
  • check out project from the CVS server
  • work with his local version
  • update changes from the CVS server
  • solve the conflict, if any
  • once the conflict is solved
    • if he has CVS write access, COMMIT it to the CVS server
    • if not, provide patches through the project mailing-list
  • DONE

Project Mailing-List
 
The project mailing-list is our primary medium of communication.

Developers subscribe to the project mailing-list to take part into the discussion of the software development.

Developer's Skillset
 
What kind of skillset does a new developer need to have ??

We all have different skill level & maybe we want to learn different things & progress differently in this project, am i right?

Everyone can contribute to the different portion of the project. Maybe someone who is not strong in the J2EE & not even in JSP & Servlet, he can start with HTML, graphics, JavaScript, JSP and Servlet. Someone may start from Struts. Some others may want to tackle the EJB & Hibernate portion.
