Thanks! Its great to hear you're doing this. A src zip attached to a jira is
fine if that's easiest for you, a diff patch is better for updating existing
code but as this is mostly new code/modules a zip is likely easiest. It
doesn't have to be perfect to submit the patch, its always tempting to
polish things first but in some respects its better to start submitting
rough code early before its perfected and incrementally improve it within
the Tuscany SVN. Worst case is if it turns into a really significant
contribution we might need a formal software grant to accept it, unlikely in
this case so just post it when ever you're comfortable.

Hi,

I've made some progress using host embedded, and have that running within
Felix. I have a barebones module that is also a bundle, but all the
regular
modules are in one big Tuscany bundle right now. It's been shelved the
past
few weeks due to transitioning to a new project, but now I'm settled in on
my new task I should be able to make time to work on Tuscany again.

I'd like to execute the following tasks before I submit a patch with an
attached src zip (that is right way, yes?):
.. Refactor to a) make it easier to use with Eclipse, Oscar; b) clean up
code
.. My test coverage is at about 60%, and I'd like to get it up above 85%
before submitting
.. Write tool that takes an already packaged Tuscany module in a jar and
injects necessary components to make it an OSGI bundle as well.  I have
design notes, a collaboration diagram, and a couple of sequence diagrams,
but no code yet, so that may take a while

Given the above and my schedule I'd like to allow plenty of time, so
figure
1st patch submit NLT 7/30.
