after re-thinking it, I wouldn't change the way to the
TurbineResourceProperty file is determined. This is because I think in the
typical case turbine is utilized to build up an application and therefore
installed in a specific context. However, what I would suggest is to update
the installation guidelines. Since they recommend - as far as I remember at
the moment - to configure turbine in the web.xml of {TOMCAT_HOME}/conf which
leads exactly to what I described.
