*Objective*:
Make Carbon core a top level project in WSO2 trunk. At the moment complete
Carbon platform code lies under
https://svn.wso2.org/repos/wso2/trunk/carbon/. This structure has its own
problems.

*Motivations*:
1) Carbon core can be treated as a separate product which has its own
dependencies, orbit and Carbon core can be released independently of other
Carbon components, products.
2) To ensure that the Carbon based products can depend on a stable, well
tested and released version of Carbon instead of the Carbon trunk.
3) This will also ensure the stability of the Carbon based products,
because they are no longer depend on the Carbon trunk which might undergo
drastic changes time to time.

*Execution*:
Here is my proposal.
1) We need to create two top level directories for Carbon and for
components, features and Carbon based products. Sample structure is shown
below.

carbon
|--dependencies
|--orbits
|--core (core set of bundles.)
|--features (Carbon core features)
|--product (Carbon product)

X (TODO we need to come up with a name. How about silicon. Dr. Sanjiva once
mentioned this name. :) )
|--dependencies
|--orbits
|--components
|--features
|--products

2) In order to change the existing svn structure to a structure like above,
we need to hold all the commits, say for two to three days and restructure
the SVN, test properly and release for commits.

Please feel free to comment.

Thanks,
Sameera.
