The idea came-up during Andrea's visit to OCU and the code sprint that 
we had with
the ZOO and Geopaparazzi/GRASS community. Subsequently Gerald and Andrea 
worked
on getting Java support for ZOO working. You can see must have seen 
thread in the
ZOO-discuss [1].

ZOO-WPS is a good choice since it supports multiple programming 
languages and
also because it is an OSGeo project (under incubation, hope that it will 
graduate
soon). So for implementing MODFLOW as WPS, one would need to WPS to 
export GRASS
raster to MODFLOW format (r.out.ascii -m (see [2]) and use the MODFLOW 
FORTRAN
code as is to run as WPS.

I am not subscribed to soc at lists.osgeo.org, so maybe you can pass on 
this mail to
Alex if you think that will help.

Best

Venka
