Thanks.

No just specification. Zip is standard format to download files. There is Readme, you can view install script when are problems, you can change install script to do workaround.

I believe implementation details *should* be hidden to the user.  The contract is that this artifact patches AS.  The issue of "how" is out-of-scope, but you can still get at the working parts underneath if you need to.

Hm encapsulation yes, but give additional ways to do workaround problems. So attach ejb3-plugin sources to jar ;). Of course sources of all jars are not need. And give  README with info from run this script.
