Tried out the distribution.

Created a simple service & wizard seems to be working fine.

But I could not get the service to run, as it needs a JDBC driver to be 
uploaded & the one I dropped into lib folder is not picking up. I guess 
the driver jar file needs to be converted into a bundle. Thus this 
became a blocking factor to test any further.

Few more comments....

1. I think few required libraries are missing inside lib folder.
eg:
commons-dbcp-<version>.jar
commons-pool-<version>.jar
opencsv-<version>.jar
poi-<version>.jar


2. Remove the test message appearing after clicking 'Finish' button in 
wizard's 3rd screen - "TODO : Deploying the service"

3. Empty 'dataservices' folder missing - but it gets created the moment 
I create a service through wizard.

4. derby.log file is being created inside wso2dssolution-SNAPSHOT 
folder. I think we should move it inside wso2dssolution-SNAPSHOT/logs 
folder.

5. URL http://<ip>:9444/ds/index.html (http) leads to a page with few 
ascii characters.
How about putting <welcome-file> tag in web.xml & doing a forward to 
https url.
Then we can give the URL to the solution as,
