Hi Julien, I just wanted to highlight that there are currently two open IPT issues related to making the IPT easier to install and upgrade: 1. Make IPT package for CentOS: https://github.com/gbif/ipt/issues/1304 2. Distribute a standalone IPT with embedded jetty https://github.com/gbif/ipt/issues/1303 Please have a look and provide your feedback if you have time.

I'm asking this because I have 8 IPT instances and it becomes tedious (and I'm lazy) to go through all th 8 web interfaces just to enter the IPT datadir on every upgrade .. Thanks!
