If you have been reading reorg@, then you will see that if anything, I am more surprised than you. I have consistently advocated larger communities (I'd say "smashed" is a wee bit perjorative), and was merely reporting my reading of the tea leaves.
I'm also a bit surprised by your statement - you were one of the
strongest supporters of WSIF and WSIL being smashed in "under"
Axis in some form; and that was done by naming the CVSs xml-axis-foo
and by having the projects be somehow listed off the Axis page. I recall your arguing with Stefano that Axis and Apache SOAP
had precisely the same dev community when there was criticism of
the two SOAP projects at Apache. Why do you now advocate that
we all divorce and go our own ways? I would think that would detract majorly from the value of the Apache brand and would result in less coordination than desired.
At a minimum, I'd advocate heavy cross linkage. And I am still seekig ways to do more.
Just reporting things as I see them. Don't shoot the messenger.
