The tangible form could be a zip/tar.gz that includes all the binary artifacts. Of course we can also publish the bundles in the Maven repository and/or in an OBR. All of these (binary releases) should be "for convenience" only. As an open source project, our main goal should be to produce a source release that people can build themselves. We've had some of these discussions in Apache ACE as well, and probably for the platform the most convenient way would be to release the whole source tree as one big release and then the most logical binary release would be one with all the artifacts as well. What I don't know is how Maven reacts when releasing some subprojects that have not changed. This probably needs some thought.
