The shale-dist assembly configuration was originally designed to only package up all the modules (i.e. shale-core, shale-application, shale-clay, ...), not the applications. The intent was that you'd have a separate distribution assembly for each individual app that you wanted to publish. That way, we can scale out to as many example apps as we want, without bloating the framework distribution. The nightly build script we're using (on the MyFaces zones machine) does this for each of the "real" sample apps (i.e. it omits the shale-test-xxxxx ones that are there primarily for unit and system integration testing). -Rahul Craig
