+Architecture. SCA is a set of specifications aimed at simplifying SOA
+Application Development which are being standardized at OASIS as part
+of Open Composite Services Architecture (Open CSA) - http://www.oasis-opencsa.org/.
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+     The Apache Tuscany SCA 1.2 release includes implementations of the
+     main SCA specifications including:
+
+        SCA Assembly Model V1.0
+        SCA Policy Framework V1.0
+        SCA Java Common Annotations and APIs V1.0
+        SCA Java Component Implementation V1.0

+    by SCA specifications, including:
+
+        - SCA bindings for Direct Web Remoting, RSS and ATOM Feeds,

+          Axis2's AXIOM, JSON, SAXON, DOM, SAX and StAX
+
+    The Tuscany SCA Runtime can be configured as a single node SCA domain or 
+    as an SCA domain distributed across multiple nodes. 
+    In addition Tuscany SCA supports the following host-deployment options: -
+        - running standalone 
+        - running with distributed nodes across multiple JVMs
+        - running with embedded Jetty or Tomcat
+        - running as part of a standard web application                                     
+     
+    The Wepapp samples included in this release have been tried and tested on 
+        - Tomcat 5.5.20 and Tomcat 6.0.14
