Importantly, it lets you choose your username, password, and network ports during the installation. As a side effect, it leaves your server deployment plans in a subdir after installation, which may help you reconfigure the server later. I'd like a couple people to try this out and give me some feedback -- however, I don't know how to distribute it. It's 24MB, wihch seems too big to post on the Wiki, and I don't have permissions on the dist directory on cvs.apache.org where the rest of the M3 packages are. Any suggestions? Thanks, Aaron
