Basically, the same as the rest of zope. In the Portal, you will find
all sorts of methods, such as teh news method, 'recent_news', and
index_html. Modify these as you would any other Zope method. you can
also change basic appearance items, such as font, colors, etc. by using
css in the styles folder.
As far as creating your own portal, as opposed to using, you can look at
the 'Basic ' view of the portal form the management interface to see
what classes it uses, and create one form there.
Good luck, HTH.
