> Apache Axis2 has proven its performance over other Web services engines over 
> the past couple of years. Its success mainly comes through the usage of 
> Apache Axiom, which is an XML infoset model based on the StAX API. Axis2, 
> however, handles Web services security by means of the Apache Rampart which 
> in turn depends on DOM based implementations of XML security and WS-Security. 
> The main deficiency of this is the performance loss due to object model 
> conversion. Therefore, it is mandatory to come up with an Axiom based 
> security implementation to regain the performance of Axis2 in the case of 
> handling secured messages. 
> The zip file included in the JIRA contains a completely Axiom based 
> implementation of XML Security which implements the following two 
> specifications.
> 1. XML Encryption Syntax and Processing at http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlenc-core/
> 2. XML Signature Syntax and Processing (Second Edition) at 
> http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/
> Thus, it would be useful for the Apache community and for others who use 
> Axis2 to have this code under Apache. A WS-Security implementation based on 
> Axiom could follow up on top of this afterwards to fulfi the requirement of 
> an Axiom based security implementation.
> Thanks,
> Saliya
