Yes, we're working on that at the moment. I've been trying to get a 
stable Java app server running, rather than the crappy Tomcat thing that 
HD is currently running on. Once I've got a beta server running, I'll 
point you all at it to give us some comments.

By the way, JetWeb guys, is there any reason for us to keep the Tomcat 
server alive? I.e. when HepData isn't using it, do you want to keep 
JetWeb alive or just turn it off/redirect?
