I don't put webdir under WEB-INF because that's not the way web apps are
deployed according to the 2.2 servlet specs. I don't believe you can access
anything directly under WEB-INF, which is why I place jars, gifs, etc
outside of this dir, just static content stuff.
Besides, it should work no matter what directory name I give it. Shouldn't
two consecutive jars work?
My directory structure looks like this.
+build.xml
+WEB-INF
| + classes
+conf
+web
+ images
+ jars
