+1 to keep the samples as simple SCA contribution JARs.

The current webapp packaging is not quite right anyway as it's introducing a half baked mix of J2EE and SCA programming model inside the webapp.

I'd suggest the following:

- Package SCA sample components as simple SCA contribution JARs, stay away from webapps.

- To allow JSP and servlets to invoke SCA service component, support <implementation.web> Web components as described in [1].

It would be good to get user 's view on this as well.  I am re-posting to
tuscany-user list since I am not sure if  everyone monitors both lists.

we're trying to sell Tuscany as all svelte and light weight.

So what to do? The reason its so big is that every webapp sample and demo
we
have ends up including a copy of most of the runtime and dependencies. One
solution could be to just ship fewer prebuilt webapp samples and demos.
Another could be to change the way we do those samples so that each
sample/demo is just a simple SCA contribution jar and you have to deploy
that to some Tuscany runtime. We've already the webapp runtime that would
work for that, and the Geronimo Tuscany support, and we could  create
another standalone runtime if you don't want to use Tomcat or Geronimo.

What do people think, does the size matter, are there some other things we
could do?
