Andreas, axis2 depends on lots of stuff that we've factored out of it. I
agree that the transports are different because they are fundamental to
axis2 and they cannot be used outside of axis2. Synapse is fundamentally
based on axis2.
However, the main reason for moving them out was to allow the transports
to release and evolve outside of the core of axis2 - of course with a
dependency on the transport interfaces out of axis2.
Keeping the package name is not an issue - just that by doing that by
doing so we made it impossible to use the updated versions of the same
transports with the older axis2. And the main reason we did this is to
avoid having synapse having its own versions of axis2 transports; which is
simply a waste of effort.
Anyway, the decision was made on axis-dev and I was only poking good
natured fun at Deepal ;-) .. not trying to revisit the decision. Its not a
big deal and it'll correct itself after the next axis2 release.
Thanks,
Sanjiva.

I'm not in favor of renaming the transport package. The reason is that
the transports depend on Axis2 and that Axis2 depends on the
transports (you can't ship an Axis2 release without transports).
Therefore both projects have more in common than just "org.apache".

+1 for the release plan...
I think we should rename the transport package names, it is now out of both
axis2 and synapse and we should treat it as a new commons project.
I propose org.apache.ws.transport as the base package name.
WDYT?
Thanks,
Ruwan

Hi all
This is to let you know that I hope to work on getting Synapse 1.3 out
soon.. I also think we should cut the branch when we are quite close
to the release, to ensure that the merging back [if any] will be
minimal.. Thus here is my plan of action proposed..
+1
How about releasing transport module and then make Synapse depend on
that ? is it doable ?
Problem is the package name conflict! Having the same transport classes in
axis2 kernel and transports :-(
