Sam found a problem with the echoHexBinary interop test. Apparently the code is now returning base64Binary instead of hex.
Neither one of us thinks this should hold up the Beta 2 release, but I wanted others to know. I will take responsibility for identifying and fixing the problem Tues. morning. Thanks, Rich Scheuerle XML & Web Services Development 512-838-5115 (IBM TL 678-5115)
