Hi, By reading through a bunch of e-mails on this mailing list and adding my imagination, I put together a conceptual diagram at the following wiki page to illustrate the kernel modulization. http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TUSCANY/Kernel+Modulization+Design+Discussions This diagram is merely for the discussion purpose and it only reflects my understandings so far. By no means it is meant to be complete and accurate. But I hope we can use it as the starting point for the technical discussion. Going through this exercise, I start to see values of the efforts which would lead to greater adoption of Tuscany/SCA by various embedders including other Apache projects and simplication of the kernel that the community can work together. You might take the following items as my crazy brainstorming: 1) Allow different ways to populate the assembly model: from SCDL, from other Domain Specific Languages (DSL) or even from another model such as the Spring context. On the hand, make it possible to convert the SCA assembly model to be executed by other frameworks such as Spring. 2) Improve the federation story so that we can plugin different federation mechanisms, such as P2P discovery-based or repository-based schemes. 3) Bootstrap the Tuscany kernel without the Java container in case that either the hosting runtime is resource-constrained (for example, cellular phones or network appliances) or it doesn't need to the support for POJO (for example, scripting for Web 2.0). 4) Provide more flexibility to integrate with different hosting environments with a subset of kernel modules. ... I guess I throw out enough seeds for thoughts and now it's your turn :-).

Can you give a quick runtime on the
colour coding. I see that the colours group realted items but some of the groups I'm not sure about. Is it intended to related the modules to what is in the kernel now? Simon
