This week the Mack Framework reached version 0.8.1. Amongst other things  
in the release there is now support for Portlets.

Portlets encapsulate a whole Mack application, from controllers to views  
to models to configuration settings to your images, stylesheets and  
javascripts. This makes it possible to develop extremely rich  
applications and share them with other Mack applications.
