I agree. I wouldn't eliminate the ability to generate content =
dynamically. I was thinking of the default download and how to make it =
as easy as possible for someone to get started using CruiseControl.

Ah, got it. Personally I think starting Jetty should be a configurable
option with starting up Cruise Control. That is, when you start Cruise
Control Jetty also starts. I actually think that's easier than
generating HTML and having to point Apache to the files. (Course if
you're browsing locally you don't need Apache...)

I've been impressed with Jetty as an embeddable web server, and I think 
it could help CC elicit more "It just works!" reactions.
