Any information on this from the developers?
Thanks!

Hello all!
In October 2007 an interesting discussion took place in Axis2 dev
mailing list about the oportunity to re-package Axis2 for different
purposes (ex.: server, client, etc.) in order to clear to the huge list
of JARs that are now packaged in Axis2 distribution under lib directory.
However, we are now in September 2009 and I see that Axis2 1.5 binary
distribution has the exact same structure of Axis2 1.3. I was wondering
if any progress has been made in this area or if there's any resource
(JIRA issue, wiki page, etc.) that is tracking any effort towards this
direction.
As of now, searching this mailing list archive and Google, I found the
following resources:
-
http://amilachinthaka.blogspot.com/2008/11/minimal-jars-to-run-apache-axis2.html
which seems the minimal set of libraries to run Axis2 server side to
create and deploy top-down webservices (i.e: from WSDL to Java) using
ADB databinding
- http://cwiki.apache.org/AXIS2/axis2-14-dependencies.html
which seems a description of each of the JARs provided with Axis2 1.4
(and should be applicable to 1.5 as well)
So, my second question is: are those two pages the best resource
currently available?
I would need some more information on the needed libraries to run Axis2
as a client, using stubs created with wsdl2java.
Last but not least: by doing a diff of Axis2 1.3 libs against Axis2 1.5
ones, I noticed that the former provided xercesImpl-2.8.1.jar and
xml-apis-1.3.03.jar, while the latter provides xercesImpl-2.6.2.jar and
xml-apis-1.3.02.jar: is there a particular reason for this version
downgrade of those two libraries?
