Hi Asankha:
There are (at least) two issues here. One is last-minute changes, sure
(and I do agree that we should delay the release by a week or so). The
other, MUCH MORE SERIOUS ONE, is that we aren't adequately testing our
base libraries. If addressing got broken by a change in Axiom, then it
was clearly relying on something in Axiom which wasn't being tested by
Axiom. We need to be better about this - I previously commented on this
kind of thing in [1].
We have a lot of tests but we need to make sure that they are the RIGHT
tests.

I agree with Thilina, Last night I found out that the latest changes in
Axiom breaks addressing and alerted Deepal. A minor bug in Axiom could
lead to many issues and Addressing just seems to be one such case. As
soon as a broken Axiom appears in the Maven repos it spills down to all
smaller projects below and breaks the builds. More changes pending in
Axiom at this last minute could be good or bad.. but it certainly scares
me a bit

Hi all,
I've been seen lot of changes happening in the Axis2 lately.. AFAIKS
the momentum of changes increased a bit recently Eg: QName, naming of
stubs, lots of AXIOM changes, WSDL2 integration, etc,etc...
I'm little bit worried about our readiness for the Axis2 1.2 release.
IMHO Axis2 needs a lot of testing.. I would also like to see couple of
more RC's too.. This is the same thing which happened for the 1.0
release, with too many late major changes it lost it's stability.. We
should always keep our 1.0 experiences in mind..
Personally I prefer delaying a release by couple of days rather than
going ahead with something which I'm not soo comfortable with... I'm
know this same paranoid feeling made the Axis2 1.1 release delayed
by days or weeks :(. But I prefer it that way..
Thanks,
Thilina
