I've been thinking about how to provide useful input here but I'm still
a little puzzled as it mixes different topics in one thread. I've left a
few snippets above to try to illustrate that, and there's more (about
distro packaging for example) in other responses to the thread.
Here are the topics I think I've seen:
- Does the app developer need to know what Tuscany and dependency JARs
are required by his SCA contributions?
- Under which circumstances does the app packager want to package the
Tuscany and dependency JARs with the application artifacts.
- Which containers are we supporting and what kind of integration with
them? Tomcat is just one example, Geronimo, JMS providers, embedded
Jetty are others.
- Does the app developer need to know ahead of time which container
integration his app is going to be deployed to. For example can I use
the EJB, WS and JMS bindings together in one app, and which container
integration is going to support that?
- What distro Zips are we building and what do they contain? just the
runtime? samples or not? dependencies or not? are we building
specialized distros for different use cases?
Would it make sense to spawn separate threads for these different topics?

With a big topic like this, dividing it into separate threads makes it
easier for people to follow and participate in the discussions. The
split you are suggesting looks good to me.
