News
The uPortal project needs to be able to publish news which are also published via RSS.
Downloads
The uPortal website needs to vend largeish uPortal release downloads. It should be easy and clear from the user experience to find the right releases of uPortal, and it should be possible to find all releases of uPortal.
Marketing considerations
The website should appropriately market uPortal, explaining its features and providing some compelling screenshots.
Documentation
The uPortal website should help people to understand where to go next, to the uportal manual space in the wiki, to the email lists and their archives.
Commercial Affiliates
There should be a tasteful, appropriate, but present listing of JA-SIG Commercial Affiliates providing services for uPortal, with JASIG Strategic Partners listed first.
Relationship to JASIG
The relationship of uPortal to JASIG should be implicitly suggested by the branding, site design relationship, navigation, feel, etc., and should be explicitly treated in the about matter.
uPortal steering committee
The uPortal steering committee and governance/advisory structure should be included in the uPortal website.
Issue reporting
That people are welcome to submit issues to the issue tracker should be clear, as should the (different!) path for submitting potentially critical security issues.
