Dear Raymond and other Tuscany users/developers:

Thus, if I got this right, Tuscany are primarily used for the SOAfication of 
the data access and biz logic layers, and I'm independent of Tuscany 
capabilities in respect to the (web) presentation layer?!?
It's this last-mentioned aspect which is still unclear to me, i.e.: 
How can I combine/package the (ZK-based web) presentation layer code -- that 
does some WebService and/or JSON-RPC calls to Tuscany-packaged components -- 
with the Tuscany-based app itself? I'm striving for a plain Tuscany packaging 
over the three app layers, i.e. to also "convert" the web app presentation 
logic into Tuscany components. Is this possible?  
(E.g., How is this task fulfilled with JSFs or JSPs in a JavaEE web app fully 
integrated with Tuscany?)

Do anyone of you have any advices -- or better some rudimentary samples that I 
could take a look at?

Thank you very much for your support in advance.


Best regards,
  Florian
