Hi,

As ant said, with the binary and samples together the distribution will
follow the other projects' distributions and I think that the binary size
won't be a problem.

Anyway, I think the samples included in the binary wouldn't be clear for the
downloader where the samples are or  whether there are samples. So, with the
samples separated would be easier for the downloader to find it.

+1 to keep distribution layout

In this week DAS release IRC chat [1], Ant had a proposal to change the
DAS
distributed artifacts.

We currently have the following distributions :
   - Source  : have das source implementation (M2)
   - BInary   : have DAS binaries and all necessary dependencies (M2)
   - Sample : sample applications in binary form (war) with attached
source
code and derby canned database (M2)
   - Javadoc : DAS implementation javadoc (new after M2)

Ant's proposal would make the distribution layout probably like :

   - Source : DAS source implementation
   - Binary : have DAS binaries and all necessary dependencies + samples
binaries and derby canned database + javadoc


My personal opinion is that, combining the sample together with the binary
distribution would pollute the binary distribution, as the sample
distribution ship derby canned databases and is currently more then 2
times
the size of the binary distribution, without incorporating the new samples
done for the current release, but I'm open for the community point of
view.
I'm probably ok  to have javadoc distribution incorporated as part of the
binary distribution.

Please, express your thoughts..
