Channels to be supported in uPortal3

Purpose

This page should describe a list of uPortal2 channels that community would like to see supported by the uPortal3 release. For background, please refer to IChannel Support page. The idea is to use this space to do all of the following:

  • Discuss which channels would be important to support and why
  • Provide links where the channel source can be found (or uploading it to attachment), and describing basic installations procedures in uPortal2
  • Discuss problems and solutions associated with porting individual channels

  • org.jasig.portal.channels.webmail.security.IOpaqueCredentials is referenced from UBC webmail code. This interface stores password or passphrase information for authentication. We need some replacement for this.
