If it were to be clustered how would you handle it? I also assume this means you have filesystem access to your servers from your development machines and that you're not interested in any features such as graceful redeploy (keeping existing sessions on the old version whilst having new sessions go to the new version)? Whilst I'm all up for simplicity, what you're suggesting only handles the most basic of deployment scenarios. I’m assuming this environment isn’t clustered.

I actually took the opposite route! I took all our bat files and (non J2EE) deployments and packaged them all up as seperate OSGi bundles. Now I can just tell a OSGi bundle to 'update' and it will gracefully stop and then download its newest version and restart the bundle.

Tools should be designed to suit us; we shouldn't have to jump through hoops to do things the way the tool designer wanted us to use them. Here here.
