Adding a short description about the distributions in the README
Hi devs,
Following is a very short description of what each of the distributions are
for... I'm planning to add it at the end of the README file of each of the
distribution (without the said distributions description in each case). Let
me know your thoughts ASAP.
Other Available Distributions to Download
=========================================
Server Distributions
--------------------
* Airavata Server
The Airavata Server binary distribution allows you to run a standalone
Airavata Server which includes all the airavata services
shipped with a default derby database as the backend registry.
* Airavata Server Web Application
The Airavata Server Web Application distribution allows you to run
Airavata Server in a tomcat hosted environment. It includes
all the airavata services shipped with a default derby database as the
backend registry.
Client Distributions
--------------------
* Airavata XBaya
The Airavata XBaya distribution is a client gui application capable of
composing workflows, application descriptors & communicating
with the airavata server to persist user data, run & monitor experiments
and analyze the results.
* Airavata XBaya JNLP
The Airavata XBaya JNLP distribution is a client gui application designed
to be hosted on a web server as a web start application
that can compose workflows, application descriptors & communicate with
the airavata server to persist user data, run & monitor experiments
and analyze the results.
* Airavata Client
The Airavata Client distribution is a set of libraries and configurations
files that allow a 3rd party application to programatically
access Airavata functionality through Airavata API.
Thanks,
Saminda

Hi Saminda,
This looks good to me.. +1. If we can add this to the site download page
that would be great... and it would be much better to add this as mouse
over text for each element.
