OK, so we have a split vote here - some people preferring "Tuscany SCA
Native" and others preferring to split out the distributions into
something along the following lines:
"Tuscany SCA for C++" - contains kernel, C++ extension and C++ samples
"Tuscany SCA for Scripting" - contains Python, Ruby, PHP extensions
and samples, requires Tuscany C++
"Tuscany SCA for C++ Bindings" - contains WS (Axis2C), REST and SCA
binding extensions and samples, requires Tuscany C++
Alternatively, we could split these up even further, into a separate
package for each extension.

+ves for "Tuscany SCA Native": single downloadable package, no
languages named (avoids confusion), unified documentation.
-ves for "Tuscany SCA Native": requires lots of other packages to
build it (some of which aren't available, e.g. axis on Mac), includes
function that users may not need/want

+ves for separated packages: User downloads what they want to use or
what is available on their platform. Packages clearly say what is
inside them.
-ves for separated packages: More work to generate and test the
combinations of packages, possibility of packages getting out-of-sync
with each other (would need some versioning scheme?).

We could, of course, offer a single package containing everything as
well as the separated packages.

Thoughts, further votes, etc appreciated.

Andy
