[Proposal] Include Jetty in Cocoon CVS

[Nicola Ken Barozzi]

To make it easier to try, test and debug Cocoon, I propose that we include the Jetty webserver in ./tools/jetty/** , and make it run with the latest build of Cocoon directly from an Ant target.

I already did it for Forrest and it works well. We would then have a ready-to-use solution that includes the webserver, instrumentation (see latest email from mighty Marcus), and in the near future a modular block system and composable samples library.

Why not Tomcat? It's bigger and has higher startup times.
Besides, since many use Tomcat, having a different webserver that is used every day can help us be more compatible between containers (and give a bit of in-house competition to Tomcat ;-).

If the responses are positive, it can be done quite quickly.
To see how it can work, download and install forrest, then in an empty dir do "forrest seed" (to create an empty site), "forrest run" (to load Jetty), and point the browser to localhost:8888.

What do you think?
