I also like to start with a Tutorial whan I'm using a new product. I'm ok
for a small but complete application used in this tutorial (something like a
secure employee management).
Maybe someone have an interesting DB demo that we used in this tutorial ?

>- Turbine/lesson requirements (OS, database, jdk, etc.)
Also maybe a small introduction on the archicture (servlet, ...).
Just to refresh important point before starting with Turbine.

Is it really necessary for a tutorial ? I think it is a specific subject
that needs more detail.

Obviously Velocity withour any comment ;-)

No price for that, I will reuse it on my customer sites ;-)
