I've already looked at this document, and I'll go deeper in.

<ncb>thanks, feed back your comments - I would appreciate it. </ncb>

So, do you say that geotools, although not fully complying your needs,
provides such a datasource for postgis ?

<ncb>
I am not a geotools developer (though I have used it, and GeoServer), but by your question I thought you were referring to a J2EE datasource which to me is different from 'just' a JDBC data source. Since with a J2EE data source such as postgis-ds.xml everything is configurable, and we are talking CMP persistence etc.  

As I remember GeoServer (and so I guess Geotools) has connections for spatial databases (Derby, PostGis, MySQL) - I used the MySQL connector for a servlet app and it was great.

I am not knocking any other projects, I am just looking specifically at a J2EE (so the full stack), and not just the web tier, deployment.

Also annotations are more closely aligned to your question about containers / spring.
