Jeez I wasn't casting a vote - I expressed my opinion and then made it clear using the Apache terminology for expressing positions. Lighten up dude.

I'm -1 because the Axis2 project is not just axis2- its a collection of
enabling pieces (axiom, neethi at least) and a bunch of up stream components
(rampart, sandesha2, kandula2, wss4j etc.). So its really the "web services"
project with an entire ws-* framework being covered by that. Calling the
whole thing axis2 is not right as its not just about axis2.

I would like to clearly identify components within the ws project that are
retired or "finished". These include (from what I know) scout, wsif, axis1,
jaxme, kandula1, and sandesha1. However, as Nadra's message shows, there are
parts of the "axis1 family" still alive and kicking.

There are other projects that I think do not use axis1 or axis2 - for
example juddi & xmlrpc - that I think could go TLP on their own to reduce
the size of ws.

So I'm -1.

However, Glen, what was the motivation for originating that thread? Is there
something broken that needs to be fixed? IIRC Dims was always against
splitting when he was PMC chair and I'd like to hear the reason for and
against by both Glen and Dims too.

Folks,

There was a WS PMC thread which has not yet shown up here....

So, WDYT? Could we spin off Axis2 and related projects into a separate
TLP? Pros / Cons / Thoughts welcome.

thanks,
