[MOBY-dev] Deploy jMoby Service

You are right about that the implementation class does not have any
abstract method. This is my fault. I am trying to explain it again. :-)
The main concept of moses service generation is to extend the
org.biomoby.service.BaseService and put all needed stuff in it. The
service providers only needs to overwrite the abstract process method
from BaseService in there implementation class. The Oracle system don't
like this. I don't know why. I think its stupid. :-(

I done it exactly like you, but the HelloOracleSkel extends the
BaseService and again oracle fails to execute the service. My solution
was to copy the BaseService, rename it, and change the abstract method
into a "normal" method.
