to this new location?

Well, I guess what I was thinking was to *not* just move it, but 
start
again - try to combine best practices in making something more useful
for real life.  I have stopped using the VelocityServlet because it
doesn't do much for me in my real life.

As a first step we could make it so VelocityViewServlet doesn't 
require
subsclassing VelocityServlet and is resource based so it can be run 
from
within a WAR with zero configuration.
+1

this also has the benefit of further freeing up the Velocity-Tools
subproject from Velocity's release cycle.
let's let VelocityServlet fall back to just being useful for examples 
and
pointing folks toward the Tools project.

*exactly*
