I don't think we should hold 1.3 for the JAXWS stuff to get in. With all due respect Ann you guys were asked tons of times about what's going on in that work and there was total radio silence for several months.

I'd be happy to see a 1.3.1 or 1.4 release which includes all of these fixes and hopefully complete JAX-WS compliance (including certification with Geronimo).

We are working on a number of fixes to the JAXWS and Metadata modules based on some internal testing. We believe many of these fixes are required for Geronimo integration of AXIS2 and will help Geronimo pass various compliance tests. If these fixes are needed in the AXIS2 1.3 release, then they would likely not make an RC1 of July 6. We think many of the fixes would be submitted/committed by July 20.

Some the problems in the JAXWS/Metadata modules that we are working on include: - The metadata layer needs to create AttachmentDescription objects if the WSDL indicates that the input or output message contains attachments - The WebResultAnnot class incorrectly initializes the name attribute to "return" when it is constructed. The default should be "". This is causing UnmarshallingExceptions in certain cases - Make HTTP transport headers and status code available via the JAXWS message context.
- JAXWS must understand processing for nonexistent operation
- Prevent NPE from calling getHandlerResolver.getHandlerChain before creating service object
- NoClassDefFoundError when creating a web service request for a client app
- @HandlerChain annotation in SEI should replace, not add to, @HandlerChain annotation in endpoint impl
- Avoid concurrent modification exception when accessing properties
- Remove unnecessary < and > from HTTP start value
- createBinding needs to retrieve BindingType appropriately - 'createBinding' needs to be client/server aware so that it will call getClientBindingID if this happens to be a dispatch instance


Should the AXIS2 RC1 be delayed to include these fixes? Or, should another release (like 1.3.1 or 1.4) be considered for these fixes?

Thanks,
Ann
