At present, this is merely a collection of links, but my main aim is to identify any release notes, Javadocs etc. that describe what, if any, portlets or APIs have been deprecated or significantly changed between WP615 and WP70x.
So far, it's looking good e.g. my developers don't need to worry about code that they're writing on WP615, it'll work on WP7, but they will ( of course ) properly test it :-)
The IBM Portlet API has been deprecated for WebSphere Portal Version 7.0 and later versions, but it is still supported. No new functionality will be added and you should convert portlets based on the IBM Portlet API to the Standard Portlet API when possible. Learn how to convert IBM Portlets to Standard API portlets.

Top 6 mistakes in IBM Business Process Manager installations
Tue, May 7th 2013 7:09a Dave Hay Let's play a game of word association. What subject comes to mind with the words "engaging" and "terrifying"? Whatever you are thinking, I suspect it wasn't IT security. Yet those very words describe J Keith Wood and Jens Engelke's new IBM Redbooks publication. In it, they share their experiences of working with IBM customers around the world on securing IBM Business Process Manager solutions. Security pitfalls are everywhere and the stakes could not be higher. This blog post is part of [read] Keywords: ibm

Thu, Apr 25th 2013 7:05a Dave Hay I'm on my second installation of Oracle 11g R2, having previously installed it using the GUI.

I did hit a few challenges: - (i) I don't appear to have the oracle_env.sh script anywhere on my box, meaning that the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID aren't set up. I manually created the script: - oracle_env.sh ORACLE_HO [read] Keywords: ibm
