---++ Portlet Repository

We are discussing with the OMII and National e-Science Centre the feasibility of setting up a portlet repository. There is also a source-forge repository called POST, Portlet Open Source Trading at http://portlet-opensrc.sourceforge.net/ . There is are also other interesting Wikis and Blogs listed separately.

To start the ball rolling I did a quick survey of what portlets are currently available.
Do a Google search for "portlet catalog", preferably using a Google API
portlet! This survey started as a 5-minute job, so is not complete.
