Thanks Eddie, that clears it up better. I guess working from the source for now makes it  a little harder to decipher as a new user.
 
One addition I'd be interested in is like Bob said, adding a working build.xml into those blank projects. By doing that it'd be very easy to get up and running right away rather than having to figure out going down into the source tree for the app builds. 
 
As a side note, is the project focusing on Tomcat for now, or are you going to try to support others?

Yes, in fact there is.

As part of the release that we're in the process of assembling for 
ApacheCon, there is a build infrastructure for compiling a Controls / 
NetUI enabled webapp.

Until this release is actually available for download from the 
website, you can produce it yourself from SVN with this command run from 
the top-level:

ant clean build.dist

and the distribution itself will be available under ./build/dist/

The build infrastructure we ship is in the distribution's ant/ 
directory and can be used to build a webapp with buildWebapp.xml.

There are also tempalte control-only and NetUI webapp projects 
available in the distribution's samples/ directory.

In other words, a build that is separate from the beehive source that a user who only wants to build an application would use (and would probably want to be able to check in to their SCM under their application source tree).

I've set a basic one set up for the test app I've been using but is there an official effort going on in this area?
