Hi, I just wanted to let you know you can now take a look at HP Web Services Platform (HPWS), which includes a modified version of Cocoon2, as I presented in one the recent emails on cocoon-dev: http://www.hp.com/go/webservices For those of you who have not read the thread of discussion on cocoon-dev ("[C2] [2.1-dev] proposed changes to the Source interface"), here is a quick introduction. HP, through the Web Services Organization (which I'm part of), is making use of Cocoon2 as _the_ framework for accessing and building Web Services. As part of the HPWS product, we are actively supporting and enhancing Cocoon2 to suit the needs of Web Services. We are using Cocoon2 to implement business level protocols like ebXML, BizTalk, RosettaNet RNIF, and others. While HPWS is a commercial solution, very much based on Cocoon2, we do plan to incorporate back in the open source all the changes we make to Cocoon2's source code. In this release of HPWS, Cocoon2 contains some initial support for accessing Web Services via SOAP. The specific enhancements contain a SOAP and UDDI logicsheet, both developed on top of some powerful abstractions, which I hope to integrate in the C2 main trunk very soon. You can take a look at the changes we've done in the source package that's included with the release. Unfortunately there isn't much documentation on this framework yet, but you can follow the thread of discussions in cocoon-dev mentioned above. Hopefully the complete solution, updated to use the today's Cocoon2 2.1-dev source code, will become available soon. I'm really thrilled by the possibility we have to work with such a great community of Cocoon2 developers and users. If you have any specific questions or concerns please let us know and we'll try to answer them.
