Hi everyone,

I have just committed the first cut of a webstart plugin in the sandbox. The
goal is to have a plugin containing all webstart related goals. The current
features are:

- ability to launch a webstart application
- ability for the user to define a custom webstart cache pointing to any
directory he wishes
- ability to start a local webserver (it's using jetty) serving all the jars
defined in a provided JNLP file

More goals could be added later.

I had initially thought we could add this to the JNLP plugin and I sent an
email some time back did not get any feedback. In any case, if people think
it's better to have a single plugin (which would be better named "webstart"
rather than "jnlp"), then I'm all for it too.

Should this webstart plugin find any interest, I'd like to move it in Maven
proper later on and I'd like to refactor the Abbot plugin to use it for its
webstart operations (I already have the refactored code on my machine and
I'm just waiting for reactions before doing anything).

Thanks
-Vincent
