You might be able to get some useful stuff from our efforts to create a very
similar framework (by the sounds of it). Have a look at our open-source
Expresso Framework, at http://www.javacorporate.com. We've tacked the same
kinds of issues, authentication, authorization, logging, and the "generic"
servlet to be a front-end to business logic with the "trx" package in
Expresso - the idea is that the business logic objects can be used equally
easily from Servlets or JSP's (or any other front-end).
Hope it's helpful to you
