OK, you got me going -- I'm working on make the assembly target
generate the proper config files and Geronimo layout to build the
installer.

I don't really fancy waiting all the way. We can use the Ant
integration from Maven, I hope, and switch later. Unless you know of a
preliminary Maven plugin we could try? We do need to use a CVS build to
get the integrated patch that lets us associate processes with packs (that
is, only install a plan if the user selected the category that contains
the plan).
I think we can have this working pretty easily if we get a build
of the IzPack compiler (meaning installer assembler) on one of the
informal Maven repos (Codehaus or something). Anyone know more about
that?
