RE: question on XML namespace names
The URI in a namespace declaration is simply a name. It isn't required to point to anything, and you should never expect that the URI is resolvable. But quite often it does resolve -- typically to a metadata document, such as XSD, DTD, WSDL, etc. Anne -Original Message- From: Ken Gross [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 01, 2004 4:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: question on XML namespace names Is anyone on this listserv using namespace names to retrieve W3C .xsd or .dtd documents?

RE: Namespaces inherited?
Tim, In the first example: ns:elemA xmlns:ns=urn:myNS elemB/ !-- this elem would implicitly be in the 'ns' namespace -- /ns:elemA ElemB is either unqualified or it is qualified by the default namespace (the xmlns=some-uri declaration, if there is one). There's no assumption that it belongs to its parent's namespace. Namespace *declarations* are inherited. In other words, you don't have to redeclare your namespaces for each child element. So, for example: elemA !-- this elem is in the default namespace -- xmlns=urn:myNS xmlns:joe=urn:joeNS xmlns:fred=urn:fredNS elemB !-- this elem is in the default namespace -- joe:elemB/ !-- this elem is in the joe namespace -- fred:elemB/ !-- this elem is in the fred namespace -- /elemB /elemA If you couldn't inherit namespace declarations then you would need to do this: elemA xmlns=urn:myNS elemB xmlns=urn:myNS elemB xmlns=urn:joeNS/ elemB xmlns=urn:fredNS/ /elemB /elemA Anne -Original Message- From: Watts, Tim T [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 2:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Namespaces inherited? Hello, I read that child elements inherit the namespace of their parent by default (Professional Java SOAP, p30, Wrox Press). The W3C spec says that they're in scope for all children. But that's not the same as inheriting. To my understanding, inheriting would mean that the children automatically become members of the parent's namespace unless explicitly overridden while in scope means that the namespace is merely *available* to the children. According to the book, the following examples are semantically equivalent: ns:elemA xmlns:ns=urn:myNS elemB/ !-- this elem would implicitly be in the 'ns' namespace -- /ns:elemA ns:elemA xmlns:ns=urn:myNS ns:elemB/ /ns:elemA I don't think this is correct but I would like to hear from more knowledgable sources. The behavior of the Xerces implementation of DOM does not conform to the above. - In case of troubles, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - In case of troubles, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [POLL] WASP Lite on Apache?
Dims, We moved the discussion to axis-dev. There's a fair amount of work that we'd need to do to clean up our code before we submit it to Apache, so before we do this work we want to ensure that our code will be useful to you. We talked about the possibilities of merging Axis and WASP, but considering the differences in architecture, merger appears to be very challenging. We've just released a new version of our C++ implementation, which we've also offered to submit to Apache. Both implementations are based on the same architecture. Our C++ implementation is already open source, so we've requested that the Axis team look at this code before we proceed further. We haven't heard much discussion since then.

[POLL] WASP Lite on Apache?
Background: WASP Lite for Java is a Web services framework developed by Systinet that supports SOAP 1.1, WSDL 1.1, and XML Schema 1999/2000/2001. Details, including binaries and documentation, can be found at http://www.systinet.com/products/wasp_lite/index.html. The product is currently distributed under a free commercial binary license. It has a large user base, many of whom have requested that we make the source available. A number of companies and individuals have expressed interest in contributing to the development of this code. The code has been developed using a modular approach, which should make it relatively easy for others to get comfortable with the code, and which should allow easy sharing of code with the SOAP and Axis projects. We would like to submit this proposal to the members of the Apache XML project for consideration of accepting this donation as a sub-project. Thank you very much for your attention to and consideration for this proposal. We look foward to your questions, comments, or concerns.

RE: [POLL] WASP Lite on Apache?
Stefano, Sorry that I have't responded to the discussion -- I've been on a plane all day. Before initiating this poll, I discussed it with Sam. I first suggested submitting WASP to Axis. Sam suggested that we set it up as a separate project. But we're happy to abide by the community's decision. As Sam said, Axis supports JAX/RPC. WASP supports JAXM. WASP also supports pluggable transports, pluggable XML protocols, pluggable header processing, pluggable encoding, and pluggable serializers. I saw a recent note from James Snell saying that he was making a fairly significant architecture change to Axis to support pluggable transports. I think there will be lots of opportunity to steal/merge code across the two code bases. I just don't want there to be a huge disruption in Axis to make it happen.

Anne Thomas Manes wrote: Stefano, I'm pleased that you think it's a good thing. To clarify: I was commenting Sam's note on I am looking forward to increased synergy and participation. Increased synergy is what I believe it's a good thing. Whether or not making WASP Lite an apache subproject, *this* is yet to be clarified to my eyes. Just to make sure that everybody understands this distinction: synergy *automatically* generates better communities. Competing projects, normally, do not. So to be crystal clear: synergy - good thing competing subprojects - not so sure We first thought of submitting WASP Lite to Axis, but after consideration determined that this approach would be too disruptive and technically challenging. Who considered that? you or the axis community? WASP Lite is a complete code base, and it would be very difficult to attempt to merge this code base with the Axis code base. Oh, believe me, you'd be surprised on how creative people can become if they are really interested in something. Any merger attempt would significantly delay both projects. We don't want to disrupt the Axis project. We share the same concerns though. Let us understand whether or not the move you propose goes in this direction or not. At the same time we think that the open source community will definitely benefit from WASP Lite. Oh, I don't question that. If Sam says so, I trust his technical judgement. But you didn't state We think that a separate project is the better way to go. I thank you very much for your suggestion and will be taken into very high consideration, but please keep in mind that it's up to the apache communities to decide what to do with donated code. If you decide to donate it in order to communities to benefit, it should not be your concern where the code ends up living, but should be the community's itself. Over time Axis and WASP Lite are likely to share code. Perhaps the projects might eventually converge. This wouldn't be the first time we've had competing projects at Apache (Crimson/Xerces/Xerces2 comes to mind). Exactly. We got burned big time by the politics involved in this very example and we DO NOT want this to happen again since we wouldn't have the energy to do this over again. It is exactly because of this example that I'm seriously concerned about having competing subprojects. Note: we have rules that allow committers of one project to propose an internal fork of the subproject itself, then is the community to decide what to do, but this doesn't separate them. If some of your guys are already committers of Axis and you think your solution is better from a technical perspective, then why don't you propose an internal fork with a new codename and work from there? I think it just goes to show that the community is very interested in the technology. Sorry, I can't follow you. I asked explicitly for overlap analysis in order to understand why you propose a different subproject but I didn't get that answer. Now, if you care about the interest of the community is should not matter where the code ends up living or what name it will end up having. Right? If you are so concerned about the name and the location, it only goes to show me that you are more interested in its location and its visibility than to the community interests. But I sincerely hope you can prove me wrong. So, let's get to the point: I'm personally against having two competing subprojects for no technical reason, no matter what they do. Technical competition should happen inside an existing community, following the Rules for revolutionaries. So, either somebody explains those technical reasons in detail (and convices me of the value of having two competing communities), or my vote remains a +1 on the acceptance of the code donation, but as a -1 on the creation of a new subproject.

Now, a technical question: we already have two projects which have a pretty high overlap (SOAP and Axis). Why do we need another one? Can't this WASP lite be donated as directly to Axis instead of creating yet another project on webservices? I admit my total ignorance on the problems and this is why I'm asking without stating a vote, but it looks to me that we don't need more subprojects for web services and if this was the case, I would like to treat them as internal competing branches, rather than external subprojects.
