I am starting to "add" wyona to my webapp but right now it is (again) 
adding my pub to wyona.

WISH:
please have a look at the architecture.zip (if you want to check it out 
copy the WEB-INF of your wyona distribution to the "architecture/WEB-INF").

On a user (integrator) perspective I would like to have the following 
architecture (when I build a new webapp with wyona).

$catalina_home/webapps/new pub
with that root I would like to build wyona around.

In any case we need the "WEB-INF" dir! In that we can place the "wyona 
WEB-INF" dir were we keep all the files that we need for the "core 
wyona" and wyona specific Java.

A second and third dir seems necessary. I recommend to place them 
"toplevel" and call one something like "wyona-cms components". Here we 
can place the toolbar and other components. The other should be the pubs 
dir. Here we keep the publications.

This way it would be possible to keep the size of the webapp to a 
minimum and it would be easy to add new components and new publications.

What do you think?

King regard
Thorsten
