+Tuscany SCA for C++ Samples - Alert Aggregator Sample
+=====================================================
+
+This is a sample that shows how a Web 2.0-style application can be built using
+SCA. The Alert Aggregator Sample aggregates various data sources and presents 
+a unified view of data from these sources, served as XML and displayed via a 
+web page
+
+There are three sub-directories in this workspace:
+    - sample.alerter
+      This contains the source code and SCDL artifacts for the Alert 
+      Aggregator. Includes components to retrieve emails from POP servers and
+      to retrieve items from RSS/Atom feeds, a component that aggregates these 
+      alerts and a component that manages the configuration of which POP accounts
+      and which RSS feeds to read.
+
+    - sample.display
+      Contains a single SCA component that provides a HTML display of the
+      Alert Aggregator data
+
+    - httpserver
+      Configuration files and scripts to run the sample under Apache HTTPD. Also
+      includes the HTML file that calls the HTMLDisplay component
+
+
+Additionally, there is the sample.alerter.app.composite file. This 
+describes the configuration of the Alerter and Display composites deployed to the 
+SCA runtime.
+
+This sample requires the following Tuscany extensions:
+Python
+REST service
+REST reference
+
+It also requires the Python FeedParser library, available from http://feedparser.org/
