Sam,

I apologise for the confusion. I was really getting at whether WSIF
includes an Axis-based SOAP provider. I agree that Paul should not comment
on Apache project structures. If Apache wants to take WSIF - and why not? -
then we need this kind of information to determine whether it should go
into Axis or somewhere else.

+1. If that just involved a change to the web site to re-classify Apache
SOAP and Axis, why couldn't it be done sooner rather than later? Would
there be significant Apache project management changes as well?

I had suggested that Paul NOT do this.  I have seen too many proposals get
mired up in discussions because the person who made the submission
expressed an opinion about the project structure before being perceived as
a part of the team.

Long term, I'd love to see a WebServices project parallel to Jakarta and
XML.
