This is still a bit clunky, but it seems to be working. This supports running both with Jetty directly, and making a .war to throw at Tomcat. You will still need Postgres to run via Jetty; this is super useful for debugging in Eclipse.
mvn clean package war:exploded jetty:run
mvn clean package war:war
You will need to copy build.properties.example to build.properties and fill in the appropriate information.
Also, use correct date format in the cache filter, as Jetty is more strict.
