Re: shifting some things around under /web (Roller 3.0)

Here is the link to Sun-prescribed conventions for JSP-based web  
applications:

code_convention/

I just thought I'd pass it along. :)

Yes.  I didn't realize we were already using WEB-INF/jsps.


styles, scripts, and images sounds good to me.  i've already started
roller-ui/scripts, and as i move css and img files i'll put those  
under
styles and images.

in some cases i have decided not to lump all css, js, and imgs in the
standard directories.  for example, the rte editor has a bunch of
resources that it uses and rather than mixing those in with a  
bunch of
other stuff so that you can't tell what things are being used for,
instead i created a special directory for the various editor  
resources.
  so the rte editor stuff is all under roller-ui/authoring/editors/ 
rte/*
and if someone wants to add new editors they are encouraged to put  
the
resources in a similar directory.
