Yep - .car is used by Geromimo (and is also confusing with a JavaEE CAR)
      .sar is used by JBoss

And everyone seems to hate .scar :-(

Thinking of ".car" or ".sar", but it seems both are used by other systems. We are running out of "_ar"!

Thanks,

Hi Jeremy

  The SCA Assembly spec defines .composites files as definitions of
composites. Wouldn't be very confusing to developers and our community in general to see .composite files representing archives ? At least this is
what I saw while reviewing the core-samples release candidate, a
calculator-2.0-alpha-incubating.composite that is actually an archive
containing common files for the calculator sample application.

Thoughts ?

I made a start on this (r513843) - atm it just supports
<packaging>composite</packaging> but I'll see about adding the
contribution and itest stuff as well.
