Difference between PortletContainer2.0 and JBoss Portal 2.6.

[iamnew2jboss]

Hi,

Can somebody please explain the difference between PortletContainer2.0 and JBoss Portal 2.6.4? Is Portal2.6.4 not a Portal Container?

I'm confued as there are downloads available for PortalContainer2.0 (http://www.jboss.org/portletcontainer/) and the documentation says that it support JSR286.

What if I'm currently using 2.6.4 (JSR 168) and need to upgrade it to PortalContainer2.0?

Please help understand the basics here.
thanks.

Portal is built on top of a portlet container. As of Portal 2.6, the portlet container that Portal is built on is not available separately. Portlet Container 2.0 is the JSR-286 compliant portlet container on which future versions of Portal will be implemented, starting with Portal 2.7.
It is not currently possible to upgrade the portlet container used by JBoss Portal. It will be possible to do so starting with Portal 2.7 (though only some configurations will be officially supported).
