I went through it all.

It does not create a war, but rather an exploded jetty server with integrated webapp.
And I do have it up and running, but again it demonstrates on how to use Maven to run sample webapp.

Again it is a project structure, not a war structure, when I translate resources from option 2+3 of a maven build script 
into a war it does not work.

I am looking to run exploded cocoon module in the webapp.
In the other words cocoon module is not jarred, and it is running in the webapp.

P.S. It is essential to any open source web project to have a simple war accompanied with a good description that can be 
dropped into a container and evaluated. It does not matter how it has been built or what is the project structure at 
this point. And this is exactly what I am looking for.
