Actually, Maverick doesn't compare with Turbine at all because it is simply
a publishing framework and is lacking the webapp aspects that Turbine has.
The other thing is that if you are using just Tomcat, it is missing quite a
few of the "features" that you claim other app servers have and should
provide.
If anything you should compare Maverick with Cocoon.
