Ok, first you need to modify a local.properties file like 
it suggests in the INSTALL doc.  This requires changing a 
few settings.  I would suggest using MySQL if you can, as 
the URLs are a bit easier.  In this INSTALL doc, you'll 
only want to pay attention to the part about 
local.properties.  It also appears that yo are using 
Tomcat.  You'll need to copy the jars from 
gotjava\lib\optional\tomcat into tomcat\common\libs and 
then setup a datasource using the JOTM manager.  I'm not 
sure whether we have a doc on that yet, but I'll try and 
right one on the plane on Friday.  After you get that 
setup, you need to make a few more changes to 
local.properties and run ant tomcat-war.  Copy this to 
your webapps, add it to your context and then run :)  I'll 
definitely write a better doc on Friday and put it in CVS. 
 Your other option is to download Orion and use that, 
following the INSTALL doc.
