Right. Close as in identical :) Unless we're going to tell people "don't drop apps in webapps/", we should test it. Next step is to get the VmDeploymentManager class updated so the impl can be configurable. Then update the "runtests" script so the implementation cab be set for a test run. Then of course to try a test or two to verify that all works. Then we can kick off an entire run with that approach and see where we land. -David
