Have you been using the office webcam to see the conversations we have been having about this? That's the same conclusion we came to. hmm… the conversations one has online when people are away on leave ;) ….

You can and should manually deploy it from time to time via the autodeployer though. At some point I'll find a way to make it all work - probably with a nightly deploy then restart cron job. heh.

E2 should be autodeployed on every build, because we want to be dogfooding the latest and greatest version. REMOVED: E2Wiki isn't deployed. Deploying it preiodically kills tomcat. and a comment in the config.xml ;) yep — which is why the following two commit messages appeared:

Since that kills Tomcat it's generally better to manually deploy new builds and check it's still running instead of automatically killing Tomcat every 5-10 commits. An added complication is that the deployment is done by a webapp running in the same Tomcat instance, so you can't just restart Tomcat.
