Webadmin is now secured and more productive

Webadmin is a web page allowing to monitor the whole application in one space. Webadmin has received lot of attention in this release. We resume them in this list:

• Basic authentication securing the access to it
• A composition tab showing the actual composition file of the application
• Stopping buttons are now under a menu, not directly accessed
• Confirmation is required when stopping the application
• We can now see the list of components, instances and logs of Java isolates

Before this release, users have to download the adequate distribution to their operating system (Windows, Linux, or Mac OS X). Now we have a full distribution that supports the three platforms. When downloading the distribution, you have to call the setup script to prepare your freshly downloaded distribution to be adequate with your platform.
