Hi All,
The comment is sure outdated.
I also think there may be a design thinking to put there. When you offer a
possibility to configure something in your web.xml normally you want to stay
as orthogonal as possible.
This means I do not see the point of providing the container.js through the
web.xml while modifying manually the shindig.properties. I think if you can
change the properties why not changing the container.js, since at the end
you will modify the final shindig-common jar file.

If we want a user to change the container.js in web.xml, there should be the
same kind of mechanism for the shindig.properties as well.

Let me know if I misunderstood something.

Thanks
