Hi Samisa,
Big +1 for abstracting out the repo concept. I actually faced all the difficulties you mentioned in a project I worked. It is a great idea of keeping the services and modules in a repo independent way. We can put services and modules as recommended by the Standard files system for such things and let the engine load them even when there are no entries in the axis2.xml regarding their location. I have a question here. If we start two servers of the same transport(say http) are we allowed to use the same axis2.xml configuration file for both servers?. I guess they need different configuration files located in different places. If someone try to load from same conf file he should be warned that a server already stared in the same context and thwart his second attempt.

Hi All,
At the moment, we place all our stuff in the repo. Given the repo location, one can find the axis2.xml, services and modules folders etc. However, I think that this is quite limiting and inflexible at times. Say you want to have two different deployments with different configurations, but with the same services; or you want the same modules but with different services, so you want to deploy different servers. At the moment, if you have such a requirement, what you have to do it to copy the repo to some other location and use it. If we abstract out the concept of repo and include the service and module locations in the axis2.xml file itself, then it would be much more flexible. Then instead of depending a particular folder structure to find services and modules, we can use the axis2.xml entries. This way the configuration becomes much more flexible.
   Thoughts please...
