Because of this, the STRATOS_ROOT directory is getting deployed as a separate webapp. So we need to move this from /repository/deployment/server/webapps to another place. Since there is a separate deployer for this landingPage webapp, we can easily come up with the new repo location. But I can't find a proper place for this in repo/deployment other than webapps directory.
