Quality can be improved by adding more integration tests.  Its done by 
deploying war to a tomcat server. I understand the concern but according to me 
its difficult to verify all the release packages during release verification 
process. I am fine to have only WAR distribution with the steps to deploy and 
update properties.  Adding shared libraries in war distribution may not solve 
our problem as user may want to deploy airavata server and registry on 
different tomcat server or different machines.

Thanks
