It includes the following major new features --
- Events - Enable portlets to communicate with each other through sending and receiving events.
- Public render parameters - Enable portlets to specify which render parameters they can share with other portlets.
- Resource serving - Enables portlets to serve resources within the portlet context.
- Portlet Filters - Allows on the fly transformation of the content of portlet requests and responses.
See some commentary on the Eventing feature. The other features will be covered in a series of upcoming blog entires.
