I'd like to start spending more time actively working on the Tuscany
Geronimo integration and having that more support the SCA JEE

to do:
The goal of this would be to use Geronimo and Tuscany to create an
SCA-enabled Java EE runtime, which from the SCA JEE specification
means "a Java EE runtime that supports deployment and execution of
SCA-enhanced Java EE applications as well as SCA-enhanced Java EE
modules."
We already have a start of that with the old Tuscany Geronimo Plugin
[2] and there's another wiki page thats started to be used to
capture some requirements at [3]. Currently the old TGP has got out
of date and doesn't work with any current releases of Geronimo or
Tuscany so the first thing to do is to get a basic plugin going
again and then gradually add functionality to it so it does things
like:
I took a look at Vamsi's recent updates to the Tuscany plugin and
fixed a minor version dependency problem. I can now build, but
installation fails with a NullPointerException:
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

.getSCADefinition(WSBindingDefinitionsProvider.java:55)
The NullPointerException is caused because
WSBindingDefinitionsProvider (line 46) is looking for a
URLArtifactProcessor for the
org.apache.tuscany.sca.definitions.SCADefinitions interface. However,
there isn't a processor defined for this interface. Thus the
NullPointerException...
Not sure what should be happening, here...
