Scott, this is a little internal application which imports data from several systems into our CMS. We support a lot of these "importers". These run typically on dedicated machines and should be rapidly installable. If I would choose to make it a web application deployable on an application server this would mean a big maintenance overhead. I am simply looking for a better solution for an administrative interface than just hitting the command line.
