Correct. What Stratos provides is the framework where you can build up your
own PaaS by deploying different different Cartridges and also if you want
by adding more features.

Essentially, to create Cartridges and deploy them on Stratos PaaS Framework.

Not quite. As you know we already plan to ship few Cartridges (eg: PHP

leverage the Cartridges we ship.
