Re: Moving ServiceDiscovery and related classes to tuscany-util

[Venkata Krishnan <fo...@gmail.com>]

Alright, I am going to create a new module named tuscany-extensibility.  The
reason I suggested 'util' was that there are a few more things like the
'getQName' method that is being copied over in several places.  I'd like to
move these things as well into this module.  So lets start with
'extensibility' now.

Thanks
