When Tech Moves On But Your Company Hasn't....

Wow! First post in 2012! Time flies...

Well Liferay dev for me has slowed down and there's been more of a concentration on other things like main product development, tradeshows etc... However, I have been working on (and almost completed) an online catalogue using the plugins SDK.

Unfortunately, I haven't been authorized to upgrade to the latest version of Liferay 6 so I'm still working with 5.2.3. This means that the internal jQuery being used is 1.2.6. I've encountered many challenges using plugins that require a later version like 1.7 so I've either had to rewrite plugins or (sloppy I know) incorporate the plugin into an iframe. It works quite efficiently but...

Anyone else experiencing this company aggravation? Share your woes!
