Hi Felix,

I have two question about the Sling launcher.

I understand that karaf is not just a launcher. As it's part of Felix
project, the Sling launcher may have something in common with karaf's
launcher in main module for general OSGi runtime launch purpose.
What's the difference between Sling launchpad/base and Felix Karaf?

HTTP Service just a standard service exposed by some bundle in my opinion.
How the web application related to the launcher?

It's worth to have an official launcher including script for server
oriented deployment from Felix project to meet the requirement such as
Karaf and Sling project.

Thanks!
