Model 1 and Model 2 example deployment webapp

[Mark Slater <li...@humanesoftware.com>]

Based on my experiences over the past few days, I've created a small  
webapp (based on the FirstHops tutorial) to demonstrate and document  
the process of configuring both a Model 1 Embedded repository  
deployment and a Model 2 Shared repository deployment. The  
documentation explains how to configure both Tomcat and the webapp,  
and the webapp tests both deployments.

I'd like to offer it for inclusion in the contrib/ section. It's a  
maven project, and I've tried to put all the right Copyright notices  
and license files where they belong. Before it gets checked in  
though, it might be good if one or two people who are more familiar  
with this process than I am could check over the documentation I  
wrote to go along with it for errors. There's not much, and a lot of it
is based on documentation already in the Jackrabbit site, I just go  
into a little more detail about how things work with Tomcat  
specifically. This is something that I know I would have found pretty  
useful when I started out a few days ago.

The maven-generated site can be found at:

http://whisper.cse.ucsc.edu/jackrabbit_deployment_test/index.html

If anyone out there has a little more time and wants to try building,  
configuring, and running the webapps on their own system, that would  
also be really nice. The entire project can be found at:

http://whisper.cse.ucsc.edu/jackrabbit_deployment_test/ 
jackrabbit_deployment_test.tar.gz

I'm open to any suggestions that would improve it.

I have no problem with it being merged with the existing example. I'm  
not saying that I'll be able to actively maintain it, but I do have  
some motivation to (I may someday get an undergrad to help with my  
project and that sample app will get them mostly configured on their  
own machine). And if you want to incorporate the docs into the main  
site, that's fine too.

I've re-uploaded the site and the project's .tar.gz. Sorry about  
that. Trying to fix a spelling error :).

I've also attached the .tar.gz to the new Jira issue: JCR-319.

Very nice, thanks! I'd be happy to integrate that with Jackrabbit. How
about if we merged your example webapp with the existing, but not
actively maintained examples contrib? I'd also like to put your docs
directly on the main Jackrabbit web site. Would that be OK for you?

I couldn't download it, the server gives me a 404 Not Found. Can you
post a Jira issue and upload the project as an attachment? That would
also take care of the license grant issue.

PS. Do we need a CLA for this or is the Jira license grant option good
enough? The contribution seems to contain one source file, a couple of
documentation pages, and the related project and appliction
configuration files.
