I think that I should write some documentation about how to setup and run 
the web client, because currently that takes a lot of effort. Each 
web-browser session gets its own civclient process. The civclient 
process is launched from the Java application server (Resin), and at the 
moment the civclient can only be run from the command line for debugging 
purposes if it is invoked with correct parameters. So you really have to 
setup the application server correctly first, before you can get the whole 
thing running.

The data directory was left out because I don't have any more storage 
space on the server. I would be really great if a new branch could be 
created in SVN on gna.org for this "experiment". Otherwise it would be 
difficult to share the source code.

Anyway, it's great that you gave it a try, event though there is still 
quite a long way to go.
