Thanks, i'm currently busy on a class diagram and a technical report
to make the application clear. Because it's quite complex, but
possible.

But in the mean while, I would like to get a list of currently used
configurations.
Like this.
web2py + apache wsgi + postgreSQL (textual configuration)
web2py (textual configuration) + apache proxy (textual configuration)
+ postgreSQL (textual configuration)
web2py (textual configuration) + tomcat  (XML configuration)  +
postgreSQL  (textual configuration) //This will probably not exist,
just an example
