| |
| <pre>We are pleased to announce the release of Apache Axis2 version @axisVersion@. |

| |
| Apache Axis2 is a complete re-design and re-write of the widely used |
| Apache Axis engine and is a more efficient, more scalable, more modular |
| and more XML-oriented Web services framework. It is carefully designed to |
| support the easy addition of plug-in "modules" that extend its |
| functionality for features such as security and reliability. |
| |
| Modules supporting WS-Security/Secure-Conversation (Apache Rampart), |
| WS-Trust (Apache Rahas), WS-Reliable Messaging (Apache Sandesha) and |
| WS-Eventing (Apache Savan) are available via the Apache Web Services |
| project. Please see the individual subproject sites for further information. |
| |
| Major Changes Since 1.4.1: |
| - Refactored, pluggable transports (separate jars, with deployer) |
| - Clustering improvements (works with EC2) |
| - Over 100 JIRA issues resolved (please see JIRA) |
| |
| Known Issues and Limitations in @axisVersion@ Release: |
| - Please see JIRA |
| |
| We are striving for a simple and happy first time user experience as well as a |
| satisfying experienced user experience with this release. We welcome any |
| and all feedback at: |
| axis-user@ws.apache.org (please include "[axis2]" in the subject) |
