RE: JBoss-3.0.1RC1 Released

Ok, that would work, what do you name it for root (empty context-name as I
set)?

I still wish there was  more deploy control though. It would be handy to be
able to have wars sitting there undeployed and be able to switch them in and
out via a tool.

If you're just deploying war files, you can just omit the jboss-web.xml 
and rename the war file to whatever you want, and that will be the 
context-root.

For example, with not context-root in jboss-web.xml, naming a war file 
foobar.war and dropping it in the deploy directory will give your web 
app a contex-root of /foobar/.  The name myapp.war will have a 
context-root of /myapp/, etc.
