	The community version is real Alfresco.  The enterprise one is
pre-tested in a packaged configuration that can be directly supported by
the Alfresco company.  I'd rather have it run in my own Tomcat instead
of having to launch another one.  I will probably split out one of the
roles on the server at a later time.  In the mean time, it's in the same
Tomcat as another app.
