Folks,

Don't forget <available> as a way of masking out some parts of a source 
tree during compilation.  If servlet.* is present, then compile that 
part of the tree in the normal ant compilation target.  

In the long run, Phoenix will make available a webserver in the same VM. 
 James could <depend> on or lookup that service and publish a webapp.

Regards,

- Paul H
