Hi,

I was just trying to get a feel of how people use the TurbineConfig
class. I generally assumed that this was to allow applications
to use the services provided in Turbine outside of a servlet
context.

I would be interested in hearing how people are using
the turbine services. The services have now been separated
and you no longer have to emulate a servlet enviroment
in order to use the services that come with Turbine.

Hopefully the services will eventually be entirely
separate, they are almost there.

I would be willing to work with anyone who wants to
try the new setup as it would be valuable for testing.
I have yet to try out running the services with TurbineConfig.
I will probably have to make some changes to make it
backward compatible which is why I'd like to test it with
some people.

I am hoping to make an example using Velocity: using
the services framework with the VelocityServlet which
is an application class in Velocity proper. Probably
a simple example of how to use the DatabaseService
with a typical VelocityServlet.

It might also be neat to try out the DatabaseService
in a Swing application if anyone currently using any
of the Turbine services within a Swing app.

BTW, there will also be some nifty services landing
in the repository soon. A BSFService that will allow the
execution of scripts in any language that the Bean Scripting
Framework allows (been meaning to do this for a long time),
a FlashService for dynamically generating Flash5 content,
and a WeatherService for gathering weather info and making
available to applications.

So if anyone is interested in trying out the services
in stand-alone mode let me know.
