Is there a good source of JSR-168 portlets ?

I have searched High and Low looking for that 1 place to download JSR-168 portlets. I can't find it. If I need a perl module there is one and only 1 place to go cpan.org. It has any and every perl module one could ever need.

We need a similar site for portlets. If you need a portlet there should be 1 site that should be your first and only stop.

Here is what I have found:
  • GEMS - Last Announcement 1/28/05
  • Yahoo Group JSR-168 - Dozen portlets
  • Portlet Repository - Dozen portlets
  • POST ( Portlet Open Source Trading Site )




  • None of these can even come close to what cpan has to offer. Is there a good repository out there that I just can't find, or is it up to us as a community to build one and make it the best that it can be ?

    The closest thing I have ever found to cpan is Java-Source.

    But currently there is no JSR168 portlet category. Do you think this would be a good place to start... create a listing where portlets can be downloaded from ?

    Another one is PortletSwap.

    I have added the links you posted to the Portlet FAQ. Feel free to add more, as well as other resources and links (or send them to one of the moderators for inclusion).
