Hi Brad - Thats exactly what I am speaking of - I havent read on Novell's work, but so many players are entering the mini-application and gadget arena in terms of portals.. its either gonna be a really big thing or something that goes bust in the conceptual stage first. Need to build these "gadgets" in Python/xml and open up the Zope system to interface with any system on the planet... to view/process/edit/manipulate its data...

Anyone look at Novell Portal Services as an example portal? You can develop servlets to make custom portal gadgets that can connect to anything.

Novell's portal services uses servlets, I've created a gadget for NPS in Jython. It works. Also, NPS requires that gadgets return data as XML. The final output is created using a stylesheet that depends on the client's browser capability..
