the server as is is not all that runtime configurable today but if you
look at etc/SimpleStartup.java you'll get a feel for what it takes to
basically embed a server. this alone will not give you all the answers
your looking for but it's a start.
the WEB-INF directory structure is part of the servlet 2.2 specification
although some of the details are changing slighthly (eg. move from
props to xml descriptors ... that's what i'm doing this very moment).
you should see more of this stuff made open/public/documented as
the details of the jakarta.apache.org process kicks in and the details
get sorted out.
hope this helps,
