Jeremy - I think you dealt with this as part of the release - but I don't remember what the solution was. Please would you delete or let me know if I need to do anything?

> Each sample requires a platform assembly so that it can be run. The assembly usually comprises:
> (1) A minimal OSGi framework
> (2) Just the Aries components required to run the sample.
> The samples each have an assembly project that pulls this platform together in the projects' target directory and creates the configuration files needed to load the platform and aries jars.
> At release time all that the platform assembly produces is a pom, this can be executed by a user outside the Aries build tree and it will install the required jars in a target directory. Unfortunately, without the configuration files, the user still has a fair amount of 'file install'ing to do before the platform will actually run.
> The most useful thing we could supply would be a zip and/or tar file which contains the assembly pom, configuration files and legal files.
> The user can simply unzip, java -jar osgi-blah -console, to get a fully configured platform on which to run the sample.
