what is/are the reason(s) that you wan to replace Liferay? I am asking 
in order to be able to answer if Yanel
might be a better alternative.

I guess you mean Jetspeed 2 (http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/), right?

I am not sure I understand what you mean exactly by deploying Yanel as a 
portlet inside Jetspeed?
Do you mean that Yanel provides content to Jetspeed via the portlet API 
and Jetspeed presents this
to the end-user?

yes, e.g. http://www.yanel.org/en/documentation/i18n.html

but you can also internationalize URLs etc.

yes, whereas the recommended way is to use a data abstraction layer 
(e.g. JCR or Yarep) instead accessing
the DB directly, but you can of course also use JDBC (or something 
related) directly.
