Is the name 'cactus' or 'commons-cactus' ? Can I keep the name Cactus
whenever I speak about it ? Is commons-cactus the full official name,
meaning all unix directories and files should contain common-cactus and not
cactus alone ?

I'm not sure what you imagined inside this tar. I wanted to deliver the
following files (extract from the Cactus web site) :
"
Here follows the list of files that you can download :
- cactus-<servletapi>-<version>.jar : the Cactus framework runtime jar for a
given servlet API,
- cactus-ant-<version>.jar : some custom Ant tasks that are helpful for
automating running Cactus unit tests. Especially the runservertests which
automagically start a servlet engine, run the Cactus tests against it and
stop the server once it is finished,
- cactus-sample-<servletapi>-<version>.zip : a Cactus Sample application
that shows how to write Cactus tests and how to run and deploy them in a
servlet engine using Ant,
- cactus-doc-<servletapi>-<version>.zip : Cactus documentation for a given
servlet API. It contains the javadoc and a local copy of the Cactus web
site,
- cactus-src-<version>.zip : full Cactus sources,
- ant.zip : a prepackaged version of Ant, which contains all needed external
jars for tasks used by Cactus build files. This is not a compulsory download
but it makes it easier for installing Ant and preparing it for Cactus. This
file is only delivered for releases (and not for nightly builds).
"
Delivering a single file means including all these files. However, they will
not be of use to everyone. Some only want to get the latest runtime jars,
others the doc, others the sample, ....
