Yesterday if you ask my boss ;) 

Seriously though, I'll work through it as long as it takes. We are being put in 
a position where we would could potentially be forced to abandon OpenBD unless 
we can make it work on Heroku... None of our team wants that - two of us have 
been doing CF development since version 2 (i.e. we're old)...

But at the same time, we are actually very interested in Heroku because of the 
fact that it is language agnostic (i.e. we have RoR and node code too) and 
having the simplicity of having to only deal with one cloud runtime is 
attractive (we are a large Salesforce customer so we get Heroku as part of a 
package deal - that is why it is hard for us to argue another cloud platform 
when Heroku is essentially "free" for us). 

Anyway, I'm ready and willing to experiment - I'm just not sure where to begin 
exactly. I know CF well enough, and I'm ok with plain old Java, but I only know 
enough J2EE stuff to be dangerous. I see all this stuff about Maven and POM 
files and I'm totally lost...

Hi this would get my +1

I'd say Alan is the best placed to answer this I think its just a case of how 
you bootstrap Jetty but i'm guessing the solution used on Railo would be very 
similar.

The other thing that makes OpenBD very attractive for this type of deployment 
is the very low memory footprint

Whats your timescale ?
