OBE forms the heart of the SourceID system -- if you "remove" it,
nothing will work at all. As far as I know, however, we don't use any
of the J2EE stuff in OBE. With some work, you should be able to
remove/disable just the J2EE stuff from OBE and still have everything
work.

That depends on what changes you need to make. But you do have the
source code, so maybe you can save yourself some effort by adjusting
the existing app.
