Re: [jetty-dev] Maven Archetype for Embedded Jetty

We have these examples on how easy it is to embed and I hadn't really
seen where a maven archetype was needed so far.

Is your thought that people are generally unaware of how easy
embedding jetty is and an archetype might help get them started?  I
wonder about that because my typical use case is I have code already
and I want to then fire it up somehow, whereas the archetype flow for
me is more at the actual start of the project.  My embedding is with
the project code and rarely another complete artifact..

I am open to the idea though, how do you see people typically using
something like this?

cheers,
jesse
