+The Apache Airavata project is gearing towards its first incubation release with the following components and features:
+
+* GFac-Axis2: An axis2 web service which can consume user defined command line descriptions and generate axis2 application web services.
+* XBaya - A desktop application which lets users to construct, execute and monitor workflow executions. 
+* XBaya is also used in the first release as a user management, application management and data browser. In the future release we will develop web gadgets to be deployed into containers like Apache Rave.
+* Workflow Interpreter: Axis2 wrapper around XBaya dynamic executor. This is a simple and interactive workflow execution engine. Future releases will support Apache ODE in addition to interpreter service. 
+* WS-Messenger: WS-Eventing/WS-Notification based messaging system.
+* Registry-API: A thick client registry API for Airavata to put and get documents. Current JCR implementation is supported by Jack-Rabbit.
+
+Users will be able to build and deploy the entire suite or selected components with one click maven installation and axis2 deployment. 
+The toolkit will enable user management in Jack Rabbit, constructing and executing third party and GFac generated services as workflows, 
+monitor progress through events and catalog and browse workflow inputs and outputs.
