Hi Florian Thanks for kicking this off. I think we need to decide what, for each type of sample, is our default launch mechanism. There are numerous different mechanisms in samples/running-tuscany but we need to pick something that will be obvious and easy to use for the first time user. There are different types of samples we have included jar/zip standalone contributions (in some cases more than one contribution has to be run) contributions that must be run and then accessed by an SCA or Tuscany client contributions wrapped in a war contribution bundles (that expect to be run in an OSGi environment) There are probably some I've missed. Typically we've provided maven and ant scripts in the past. However we now have the new shell stuff and mvn plugins that can do some of the work. I wouldn't advocate removing any of these options but, for each type of sample, we should pick a simple default approach that we can easily document. IMHO, having tried it, documenting multiple approaches for each sample is hard work and makes the sample doc look complicated. I'll have a play with the options we have now to see which one I like in each situation. If others can do the same we can discuss.
