my 2 cents...

i got sick of trying to remember where all the bits and pieces go, so
now on linux we use this structure:

/opt/WOApplications
/opt/WOWebServerResources
/opt/WODeployment

our apps go in WOApplications
our web server resources go in - yes you guessed it - WOWebServerResources
and javamonitor & wotaskd go in WODeployment

deployment for idiots. like me.

oh, and we've published a script that builds a linux box inline with
this from scratch:

http://webobjects.s3.amazonaws.com/wo-install.sh

it's only tested on amazon linux, but i guess it might work on simliar
flavours (centos/redhat). the script is part of a wider effort to
fully automate deployment on ec2...
