Comment (by iwakeh):

 I needed to think about this for a while.  Moving the servlet is
 essentially reducing ExoneraTor to its backend functionality.  Why not
 begin with releases of ExoneraTor now with the move of the servlet and
 using the released jar in metrics-web?

 Steps involved for ExoneraTor:
 * create a war for replying to the query
 * create a jar for the internal (= unofficial&beta) API (QueryResponse
 alone)
 * move the servlet to metrics-web and use it there with the jar

 Another, not required but highly simplifying process is using embedded
 jetty for the war, which should be easier without the servlet.
