+============================================================
+
+Apache Tuscany provides a runtime based on the Service Component
+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:
