> The hole idea is:
> * tomee.war -> as simple as possible (important stuff only)
> * webaccess.war -> where we would add GUI related code.

> Let me know if this is OK.
> I plan to remove all the GUI code from "tomee.war" this weekend.
>
> In order to see the application, go to the "tomee-webaccess" directory and
