<h2>Axis 1.2 Release Notes</h2>
<p>This is the <a href="http://ws.apache.org/axis/releases.html">1.2 release</a>
of the <a href="http://ws.apache.org/axis">Axis SOAP toolkit</a>.</p>
<h3>About this release</h3>
<p>This is the Final release of Axis 1.2. Please kick the tires,
put it through it's paces, and let us know via our mailing lists or
<a href="http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS">bug tracking system</a> if there are problems.
<dl><dd><b>Please Note:</b> It's been much too long between 1.1 and 1.2, and as such we are releasing 1.2 in order to distribute an "official" release incorporating all the fixes and improvements. We do realize that there are still some issues to be resolved, and we expect to follow the "release early and often" mantra in a much more rigorous way than we have been over the past year. The net of this : expect to see a follow-on 1.2.1 or 1.3 release sometime soon as well.</dd></dl>
