Given that I have a marginal (very) understanding of turbine. I am not sure
I can answer this question. But I will try, and perhaps learn a little about
turbine.

My understanding of turbine is that it implements a controller/view model.
Having briefly looked at it; I think it does alot more. This is the part
that I am uncomfortable with. My discomfort comes from being forced into a
specific way of dealing with databases. That being said, I like the idea of
the controller view model, and would embrace this model.

My view of the solution would then incorporate JSP to display the pages, and
beans to communicate to the underlying servlet logic.

Please feel free to correct my (lack of) understanding of turbine.
