[jelly] as a Turbine templating framework ?

[Stéphane MOR <st...@yahoo.fr>]

Hi,

I read a while ago something interesting about a JellyServlet...

I'll like to know if there has been some attempts of a Jelly Service for 
Turbine (or Fulcrum),
that would work like VelocityService (ie: you request 
"localhost:8080/foo/servlet/foo/templates/index.jelly"
and the service evaluates the script and sends it to the browser).

Though, I don't know how Turbine deals with Layouts, Navigations, 
Screens, etc.
This could be reproduced I guess.

One problem is that is could break the MVC pattern, as eventually some 
logic would be inserted in those
scripts rather than in services/pull tools.

We could then have "jelly actions", which would do something, set a 
template to use, and pass its context to
the "jelly screen". This could even be goal-oriented, with "jelly:jerkz" !!

If it's been done/thought of already, please point me to the info.
Otherwise, I'll try something like that in the next few days.

Any ideas ?

Thanx,
Stéphane
