Stability, Stability, Stability
• Plugging memory leaks
• Fixing bugs
• Making our portal robust

Skinning
• Jason Shao’s ideas and efforts

Layout Management
• DLM
• DLM / ALM marriage
• Programmatic creation of fragments
![Page 16: UPortal 2.6. Yes, there will be a uPortal 2.6 Many institutions using uPortal 2.x Have needs for new features, bugfixes, and improvements Will be using.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649ec95503460f94bd6458/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Nested tabs
• As more content becomes available– e.g., Sakai as veritable treasure trove of
content
• As layout fragments can be created programmatically at runtime
• We need more real estate in which to present the components.

WSRP consumption
![Page 18: UPortal 2.6. Yes, there will be a uPortal 2.6 Many institutions using uPortal 2.x Have needs for new features, bugfixes, and improvements Will be using.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649ec95503460f94bd6458/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Sakai integration work
• Improving uPortal by taking advantage of resources made available by Sakai– Skinning, layout management, nested tabs,
WSRP consumption– Also enabling more portlet view technologies

Bugzilla Jira ideas
• There are good ideas from our Bugzilla days– Persisting minimizedness of channels as part
of layout preferences, e.g.
