1. -0; fix it after B2 2. +1 to fixing the Calendar/Date 3. +1 to omitting the C++ code from the release.

Over the weekend some folks played with beta 2 rc 1. I've seen a number of issues related to it. 1. Glen found and fixed a problem with bean field names - capitalized vs lowercase (in the head branch - NOT in the beta 2 branch). Glen and I determined that this should not go into beta2, but we should ask the wider community. Should this fix go into beta 2? 2. There's a problem with our mapping of xsd:date (thanks to Tom Mikalsen for finding it). It used to work in beta 1. It doesn't in beta 2. Since it's a regression, the fix is a good candidate for inclusion in beta 2. Here's the relevant code in org/apache/axis/encoding/DefaultTypeMappingImpl.java: myRegister(Constants.XSD_DATE1, java.util.Calendar.class, new DateSerializerFactory(java.util.Date.class, Constants.XSD_DATE1), new DateDeserializerFactory(java.util.Date.class, Constants.XSD_DATE1), true); Note that we're mixing Calendar and Date in this code. It should be all Calendar or all Date. I suggest it should be all Date because CalendarDeserializer assumes a time portion as well, which doesn't exist in xsd:date. (And after beta2 we should write a test for this as well!) 3. The C++ code is in the source distribution. Do we want that to be there? It implies that we're distributing a C++ implementation which we're not yet. I think we should remove the C++ files from the beta 2 distribution. Any other issues? At this point my votes for changing the beta 2 for these issues are: 1. -0 2. +1 3. +0 Russell Butek [EMAIL PROTECTED]
