Alex,
We could do something like this, but it would still need to use maven to start the server (mvn jetty:run). Unfortunately, you'll need to have a local maven repo, that's a) part of how maven works and b) the legal implications of us redistributing a bunch of other peoples code to make it self contained probably had various ramifications. We could supply a hello world on github, but this is just what the archetype creates for you. Perhaps this is a case of education in our community about how maven works? If there were supporting documentation would it be so scary? (it might help you answer mvn's questions too!)
