[mojo-dev] axistools-maven-plugin promotion and release vote

[Jesse McConnell]

Its about that time I think, to get the axistools plugin out of the sandbox and in the hands of people that use it some more.

I would like to release it as a 1.0 release.

What is has:

wsdl2java support for axis 1.2
java2wsdl support for axis 1.2

There are two mojo's in the plugin, one for each of the above.  There are three ways that I know people have been using it:

1) wsdl2java in generate-sources
2) java2wsdl in process-classes (to generate a wsdl) based on compiled classes
3) wsdl2java in a subproject dependent on a project that java2wsdl executed in and processing off of the wsdl embedded in that jar


What I would like to save for future releases:

- latest 1.3 axis release
- latest 2.0 axis release (refactored plugin structure should support this nicely so there will be one maven plugin for all of axis web services)
- increased support for downloading referenced xsd files and processing locally


I know there is a fair amount of work involved with adding these new versions and xsd support but I would like to get the quite useful base that exists now into release land.
