Frank Leymann  commented on TOSCA-114:
--------------------------------------

We do support Boundary Definitions for service templates to export interfaces, properties, requirements, capabilities from encompassed node types etc.  Does it satisfy your requirement to define the LAMP stack as a service template, specify a corresponding boundary definition, and associate a LAMP_Capability capability?

> As a designer, I should be able to create a Composite Requirement/Capabaility such as a LAMP stack. That provides/requires a set of component requrements: Linux, Apche, MySQL, PHP.
> When a platform is stood up from a image, it may provide all of these capabilities. 
> When designing a application it is also desirable to create the relationship on a LAMP stack and not have to create all of the relationships. 
> It is common practice software components are grouped together and integration tested as a single unit. ie. This specific combination of components is tested and proven to work well together.
