I'm pretty sure it at least works, since Spuds had been working on it. The conversion had been somewhat parallel to the development of 2.4 version of SimplePortal, which had been stalled for some time now due to other projects I had to work on but should start again soon.

I worked (with some bugs) on B1 but I would guess its needs some updating for B2. Its high on my "list" of things to get working on now that B2 is out.
Tabbed block

Is it possible to have block in with tabs where we can browse through most liked, recent, most viewed etc posts/topics ? I mean something like [bd] Widgetframework for XF.

Widget framework is the most downloaded addon for XF. I think he means something like like the blocks at TAZ community

What is the difference between portal anyway? It can do all that as well, and more, right?

The difference lays mainly on what users expect to be on the "core" and what not.
A "sidebar" is much simpler than a portal. It is usually meant to be shown maybe only on the board index, with... something in it.
A portal is usually much more, the current Simple Portal is much closer to a CMS than a ... simple portal and maybe many people only want a simple sidebar and don't want to have to deal with all the stuff that SP brings with it.
Do note that I always considered sidebars as unnecessary hassles, but recently (there is a topic in this board) I started considering the possibility to have one. I also started coding an addon, and I was immediately side-tracked to something more complex as usual. lol
