Yeah, I think we are all on the same page now.

- Build a single archive
- swizzle J2EE files that need to be changed for deployment, as part of
the deployment process, not the build process
- externalise as much configuration as possible

As for a configuration server - that's a good idea (I was going to try
using a directory server, as I had most of my config in JNDI to
centralise the deployment profile to one file). Managing those servers
(which could become a single point of failure for the app) might not be
desired in some places though, so it's good to have a "push"
alternative, where you centralise all the configuration still, but push
it out onto a cluster of servers and change acording to the environment.

Where does this all leave filtering? Seems like we should have it, and
we develop some best practices and possibly deployment tools that
demonstrate what we have here.

Everyone agree? Anyone want to take a stab at a little doc?
