I should warn you that it's a work in progress and the current version has very 
little Drools related code in it. Most of the Drools code is actually in the 
tests, where I have been prototyping things. The current piece of code in there 
is a validator which might as well be a stateless session, but I'm also putting 
some code for a streaming trade aggregator into it. I have it in another side 
project at the moment, so it should hopefully be quick to add it this weekend. 
It's not using the time window queries of Fusion, but it is using a single 
session in stream mode, so that events can be inserted as they occur.

However, hopefully for now it provides a reasonable example of a web project 
structure and build, with Drools components. Keep an eye on the project over 
the next few days for some more meat on the bones! :)
