Now I don't know about other's experiences, but in my case: when I was a newbie I was told that for web development I needed two things: 1. an application 2. an aplpication server 2a. Deployment consists of copying one file Ok, that looks like three. But the third step is actually like clicking "go" when creaeting an installer for a stand-alone program. My point is that what's easy for one newbie is confusing for another. I never grokked the websphere deployment model for example; at least not until I wasn't a newbie anymore. But others swore by it, abhoring me being at home in the lowlevel details. So as a whole, I think Freddy's quickstart is a good start. Using any logically thought out directory structure with it (especially a well documented one) will work fine. Just my 2 cents..
