A WAR file is just a jar that has one special directory /WEB-INF that has to
contain a web.xml file. As long as your web.xml file validates according to
the DTD, it's a valid WAR. Basically you can has as much or as little in the
web.xml file as you want. (see http://www.orionserver.com/docs/web.xml.html
for more details on what can go in the web.xml file)
That's really all there is too it.
