Thanks David. Perhaps some others can throw some light on this. One of the first articles on JCR I read was this rather good one by Sunil Patil at http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2006/10/04/what-is-java-content-repository.html

This is a classic n-tier application using Struts, daos, dtos and JCR as persistence.

When I saw Magnolia, I thought: good - probably a value add supplying some front-endedness to JCR development, perhaps with tools to take most of the labour out of the best-practice architecture in the aforementioned article.

You might imagine my surprise when I saw that in a way, it seems *all* front-end, using a content repository to model the presentation layer. Am I wrong?

Granted I haven't looked at it at all -- just seen mentions of it on the user list here but I think Magnolia has a data module for handling abstract data constructs.
