Okay, so there isn't anything "Out of the box" or "WebWork way" for doing this.. I guess what I am learning about WebWork is that it isn't the "garbage can" approach to providing everything.. I have used Turbine extensively, and in Turbe there are built in tools to for generating an email using a velocity template. I will look to rolling my own velocity templated email tool.
As far as that goes, how can I ask WW for a Velocity template? It looks like if I want to merge a velocity template using webwork, I need to do something with VelocityEngine?
