Hi Thilina, I agree with you on both points. But as Axis2 1.4 also contained the docs shall we go on like this in 1.4.1 and do the change in Axis2 1.5. I will remove the tool binaries from the from the tools module and shall we continue this vote. I removed the tool binaries from the src dist [1], and the old src dist can be found here [2].
