Hi Jing --

I think Ben's right -- should be a packaged install, preferably a WAR file
that contains everything someone would need.  So maybe you could add the
Kepler instance directly in the WAR file with the web service so that all an
admin would need to do is drop it in tomcat's webapp directory and the y
would be set to go.
