Re: [sca-j] ISSUE 119: JAA Conformance Section

[Anish Karmarkar <Anish.Karmarkar@oracle.com>]

Bryan,

Very good proposal.
Two comments:

1) The definition of SCA runtime,
"· SCA runtime, which provides a container for SCA components and 
potentially tools for authoring SCA artifacts, component descriptions 
and/or runtime operation."
I think, would make sense to have it be defined in the assembly spec and 
  be pointed to from other specs.

2) I don't quite see tools/artifacts claiming conformance to the common 
annotations and API spec, which contains functionality available for C&I 
specs to include-by-reference a-la-carte. It is specific C&Is such as 
Java C&I that tools would conform to.
