Laurent,

reading this lines makes me keen of testing it... ;-)

Well, some things need a disussion. :-)

No problem with the paths, if they are documented somewhere and they are correct at 
default.
See my mail to Philippe regarding external jars. There is no need for two dists, if we 
will
ensure to deliver the jars and get it installed in parallel to jonas.jar at default.

Yes, if you do not compile that classes, security interceptor will not work. That 
means, TomCat can access JOnAS only without security information! If you want to 
compile the classes, you need to install TomCat or at leas include the TomCat.jar into 
the classpath when compiling.

Great! :-)

Maybe it would be the most easy way to just correct the errors?

Thank you
Markus
