A Better Model for Generic Types of Cartridges
Hi Devs,
In my view we can identify three generic types of cartridges.
1. Framework Cartridge - Ex.php, Appserver, etc. on which a user would
deploy and application and work
2. Data Cartridge - Ex.MySQL
3. Application Cartridges - Ex. Wordpress, etc. on which you would have a
pre-configured application running.
The names might not sound very self-explaining :)
So according to this a git repository will be required only for the
Framework type cartridge.
For a specific type of cartridge, say for an example PHP, any additional
payload information (if required) can be specified in the cartridge
definition.
WDYT?

Hi Isuru,
I think we need to identify how these types are different from each other.
A comparison table would be ideal. wdyt?
