Subject: Re: [wsrp] Are WSRP services aware of their page?
I would prefer that the portlets would rather be decoupled and unaware of their context. From a design standpoint WSRP offers location transparency and we should try to keep it that way. Maybe the notion of the portal as an event broker could be used as a workaround.

This way, portlets can be coupled together to make decisions based on whether "partner" portlets are present on the same page. Is something we intend to support in WSRP? I didn't see anything on a search of the lists. My colleague on JSR 168 seems to like this idea, though I am a little uncomfortable with it in the context of WSRP: I'd prefer much looser coupling between services be maintained if possible. Aside from that I'd much prefer that alignment between the two standards be tight enough that, from the programmers standpoint, location transparency is maintained. If this hasn't been addressed, are there any thoughts from members of both standards bodies?
