> Q) framework/example and framework/exampleext: move to specialpurpose

Adrian would like to keep Example in the framework but slim it down a lot to 
the essential (no form widgets examples, no Ajax examples, no content examples 
etc...). Adrian would you please confirm if in your vision the "example" 
application should document the layout of a typical OFBiz component only? If 
yes, we could use the output of the "ant create-component" task to document the 
best practice layout.
Jacques, Olivier would like to keep also the examples for the various higher 
level features available to OFBiz applications.

I think that from the discussion it could emerge the following solution to 
please everyone:

* keep the "example" component in the framework but slim it down to the bare 
essential
* move the "exampleext" component to specialpurpose and migrate to it all the 
extra features: this could also be used as a best practice guide on how to 
extend a component from hot-deploy/specialpurpose

I still think that it would be nicer to not bundle the "example" component ootb 
to keep the framework cleaner: the example should be downloaded separately 
(when we will have clear separation between framework and the rest); this 
approach is similar to tomcat and its example applications. But I don't have a 
strong opinion on this.

Jacopo
