This is partially because none of us have had good experiences running apps in java and partially because we have noone with Java programming experience to fix things if we need to. If you had some people to give to us to work on maintaining the server we might be able to work out something similar to how zikula is being run for the docs deploy. But that doesn't sound like the case :-( -Toshio
