Thanks for the advice. I'll go with this. I will look into how to create a module which I can use in both webapps, and I will need to find a reliable way to connect both of the webapps to the same (amazon RDS) database without running out of connections etc (I believe this will just mean working with the hibernate config).
In the long run, I do think this is the best approach, although as we currently have ~70 pages and around 10 services, i'm sure you can imagine why I was a little hesitant to start chopping things out of it, but I suppose this number of pages and services is all the more reason to split it into two webapps. One benefit of having a single webapp is hosting prices, as it's with Amazon on an EC2 instance - it means we will now have two EC2 instances unless I can figure out a way to get them both on one - I am sure this is possible but perhaps not particularly easy. Thanks again for all the help - I know what I have to do, it's just going to be quite an effort (no fault of T5 - it's a huge change to the direction of the project).
