I have added the support to generate the manifest jars which contain the
classpath for a given distribution. JSE users can just use the manifest jar
alone to point to the distro he/she wants. For example, to use "core"
distro, we generate "startup/tuscany-distribution-core-manifest.jar" with
the following MANIFEST.MF. Please note it works well with the flat structure
under "modules" for all the jars.

Subject: Re: [2.0] Align samples with the distributions
Agreed. It's just a local repo. Do you think adding a little structure add
technical difficulty or is a flat structure a personal preference? I'm
interested in situations like this where we have some people who want
solution A and others want solution B (where both solutions are valid). How
do we come to a conclusion? In the past this has tended to stall us a little
so this is a good chance to see if we can do better;-)
I'm seeing some technical issues:
1) Adding a little structure will make the distribution incompatible with
Equinox OSGi launcher and PDE target platform.
I believe this is a statement about how it works just now rather than a
statement about blockers for change.
I more view it as a block for introducing structural changes. The current
layout can be directly used as an Equinox installation of bundles or PDE
target location.
That seems like FUD to me, I don't see any reason it can't be made to work
with either structure. This seems to be the main objection so if we can show
it can work then can we lay this debate to rest?
