Aaron,

Sorry about the honey-do list!  It was my anniversary yesterday so i was 
scrambling to get a few things off the list as well, which spilled over 
into this morning......

I thought the source was in the zip download but perhaps not.  It IS 
open source.  I have a few things more on the "anniversary" list to do 
and my in laws are coming into town for the holidays but I'll see if I 
can get the source wrapped up and available by tomorrow.  It *should* 
have been there.

The web site itself is still a little shaky since I moved stuff over to 
the JS12 blade a few weeks ago.  I haven't checked all my web sites that 
the JS12 is running now and I haven't set up the Demo user profile for 
web5250.  But, you did the right thing: Deploy the war to an existing 
Tomcat server on your local network, change the IP references in the 
web.xml  and then give it a whirl on your own box.

I'll post when I have the source in the package.  Sorry about that.

Pete
