Description

Once a Pax-Construct project has been developed, it'd be nice to have a script that builds everything and packages the bundles in a ZIP file, along with Pax Runner, for an unzip-and-run distribution of the application. Or, if this is just a collection of bundles (not necessarily an application), just zip up the built bundles for distribution.

I've just added a new goal, "pax:package", that builds on an option I added to pax-runner. The --executor=script option for pax-runner generates shell and batch scripts in the runner directory, making the runner directory an entirely self contained application (see PAXRUNNER-177 for more detail). The pax:package goal simply executes pax-runner with the --executor=script option and then zips the resulting runner directory.

So, while this exists as a proof-of-principle, we should probably consider refactoring this into a normal maven assembly.
