Hi,

The idea would be to do the same as what Jenkins is doing and provide an 
executable XWiki WAR using winstone:
https://github.com/jenkinsci/winstone (it’s using Jetty).

This is the install doc of Jenkins: https://jenkins.io/doc/:
"
• Download Jenkins.
• Open up a terminal in the download directory and run "java -jar jenkins.war"
• Browse to http://localhost:8080 and follow the instructions to complete the 
installation.
“

Actually what could be nice is that we could release a single WAR packaging for 
XWiki and:
* Users could execute it as an executable WAR with java -jar xwiki.war (it 
would run Jetty)
* Users could deploy it in their servlet container (in this case the embedded 
Jetty wouldn’t be used)

This would allow to release a single packaging and simplify things. It would 
also work on all OSes and don’t even need users to unzip anything!

WDYT?

Thanks
-Vincent
