I guess you are right.
I found new docs, and In the last releases of Forms Services, they talk about CGI implementation and Servlets implementation. At the beginning I thought servlet was the new name for cartridge (you know how Oracle likes to change names !!!!), but later I conclude it's not that way.

do you know what exactly servlets are? or what should I do to configure them?

Thanks again.
