Im concerned about that we are going to reinwent things. A layout is a 
XML document, isn't it?

We know that a XML document can be presented in many ways, not only as a 
Web page.

If we define a portlet, how can I imagine it? A thing that gives me 
presentation -structure, -logic, -sytle and content?

Is a portlet HTML only?

Sorry if this sound confusing, maybe I'm misunderstanding the whole thing.
