IMO we should use Maven to create a ZIP deliverable with all libs and scripts in place, and maybe we should have a folder inside target with the same ready to use structure and we could direct people to run from that folder. The problem is that since the folder would be inside target, if the user execute a mvn clean again he will lose any modifications, like models he might have created.
James, if you like I can prepare a maven assembly that we could start with.
