[12:19:52 CDT(-0500)] <athena> EricDalquist: we shouldn't have portlet parameters that start with PORTLET. anymore, right?
[12:20:00 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> right
[12:20:17 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> there is are separate preference elements for portlet preferences now
[12:21:10 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yeah
[12:21:18 CDT(-0500)] <athena> that's a hold over from when there wasn't, right?
[12:21:32 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[12:21:35 CDT(-0500)] <athena> going through and adding support for readOnly preferences back into the portlet admin portlet
[12:21:43 CDT(-0500)] <athena> and need to fix the parameters and review pages
[12:21:45 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ah got it
[12:21:51 CDT(-0500)] <athena> drives me crazy how messy this code is :/
[12:22:01 CDT(-0500)] <athena> really hard to write unit tests w/ all the groups and permission stuff
[12:23:52 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah it is 
[12:27:56 CDT(-0500)] <athena> will be nice to eventually get that fixed
[12:51:41 CDT(-0500)] <athena> do we still have a use case for arbitrary portlet parameters? i'm kind of thinking no
[12:53:09 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> like just letting the user enter random stuff for the portlet layout parameters?
[12:57:14 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yeah
[12:57:34 CDT(-0500)] <athena> i think we used to have that because individual IChannels might need some custom parameter
[12:57:45 CDT(-0500)] <athena> and if you were using the "custom" channel type it wouldn't knwo to prompt
[12:57:55 CDT(-0500)] <athena> but i don't know that we need it anymoreO?
[12:58:20 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> right
[12:58:30 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and I don't think we would
[12:58:41 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> since they are now only used by the XSL
[12:58:41 CDT(-0500)] <athena> ok
[12:58:43 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yeah
[12:58:53 CDT(-0500)] <athena> and you can pretty easily add a new param into the CPD
[12:59:10 CDT(-0500)] <athena> want me to pull that stuff out?
[12:59:28 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> sure
[12:59:45 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and we have like a 'shared cpd' that most of the other CPDs build off of right?
[12:59:50 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so you can even just add it in one spot?
[13:02:04 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yep
[13:12:58 CDT(-0500)] <athena> so where are we with determining what modes portlets have? looks like that might be in a bit of an in-between state
[13:13:10 CDT(-0500)] <athena> are we no longer tracking that as part of the portlet model?
[13:13:46 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> like what modes it supports?
[13:14:18 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yeah
[13:14:38 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> that should all be provided by the pluto object model
[13:14:57 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> which you can get from the portlet definition registry with the portlet webapp name & portlet name
[13:16:00 CDT(-0500)] <athena> so what if there's a portlet that supports edit mode, but the deployer doesn't want it to be user-editable?
[13:18:17 CDT(-0500)] <athena> it kind of looks like there are also portlet definition parameters modeling which portlets have edit/help/about mode?
[13:18:31 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[13:18:45 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so there used to be has edit/help/about directly on the portlet definition object
[13:19:02 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> when I did the import/export update I moved them to parameters
[13:19:16 CDT(-0500)] <athena> ok, cool - just wanted to make sure that was the plan
