Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-94:
---------------------------------

One issue with getting the data automatically is that GroupLens has asked to 
not include their data with the distro, since they need those that use it to 
acknowledge their license terms. Automatically grabbing it also seems to go 
around that.

The jetty part is possible, sure. There's yet another little catch that may 
make it hard to make this plug-and-play and that is that the demo needs a large 
heap, which is not available by default, which means setting command line 
options. That could be taken care of in an ant target I guess.

Unless I remember incorrectly this will also entail sticking Axis in the distro 
since the web app that gets generated exposes a web service via a .jws file.
