Can I ask a supplementary question please? We have a couple of applications that are a few html and JSP pages and a couple of servlets. Packing the whole lot up in ear files and deploying under JBoss-Tomcat is really nice and simple. Obviously then we are not using Apache because Tomcat is serving up everything.
Is there any point in taking the minimal HTML stuff outside this deployment so that Apache serves it? It would be a lot of work to move it out of the deployed files, and it is really only the front end to the JSPs and Servlets.
