Hi,
I went through your tutorial at
http://www.hpl.hp.com/research/smartfrog/releasedocs/smartfrogdoc/SmartFrogTutorial.html
with
the intension of realizing what your tool does and what not.
I have three questions.

   - How your tool is different from Puppet, Chef like tools?

Regarding the DynamicWebServer example, I went through
http://sourceforge.net/p/smartfrog/svn/HEAD/tree/trunk/core/smartfrog/src/org/smartfrog/examples/dynamicwebserver/apache/
to
realize how SmartFrog describe the configuration of an Apache Web server
component and how SmartFrog implement operations like sfDeploy and sfStart.

   - Based on my understanding, SmartFrog uses both .sf and .java file to
   describe a configuration of a component. What is the intention of having
   .sf and a .java file?, Why can't we use a single .java file to describe an
   component?
   - Also I could not find the concrete deployment workflow implementation
   of the Web server (as specified in
   http://www.hpl.hp.com/research/smartfrog/releasedocs/smartfrogdoc/sfDynamicWebServerExample.html#How+it+works)
in
   here (
   http://sourceforge.net/p/smartfrog/svn/HEAD/tree/trunk/core/smartfrog/src/org/smartfrog/examples/dynamicwebserver/apache/ApacheImpl.java#l77)
   is it implemented in any other place?
