Sounds very interesting, but I am pretty sure that I will not be able to 
attend your presentation.  Could you perhaps share what you will tell 
your JUG?

For my project I ended up with myfaces + tomahawk.   The single facility 
that was fantastic when coding was the tomahawk tag that allowed access
