silly me, I should have looked at the domain. of course, Merant and the PVCS
product family.

well, they'd better not be talking to the server from .NET, as its DIME
implementation buffers incoming data to memory, not the file system.

you should note that Axis1.1 has some hooks to let you get at the filename
of an received attachment and then 'detach' that file from the attachment,
so that when the attachment object is destroyed, the associated file isnt.
We use that to avoid copying big files around server-side.
