You already are a committer. You are in the ws LDAP group so you should be able to make changes to Axiom, build the release, etc….

The main issue is that the “Active” folks on WS are generally from the CXF/Camel ecosystems which don’t use Axiom. A roll call would likely find 3 active people as we DO do wss4j releases quite often as CXF generally needs them. I do plan on doing XmlSchema and Neethi releases soon (I’m testing and updating things for Java17). Thus, getting releases of the components that are shared with CXF is generally done in a timely manner as they need them. Axiom (and Woden) would be much harder. There is the question of whether Axiom and Woden would be better served by moving them from WebServices to the Axis project, but that seems a bit heavy handed and something I’d prefer not doing as it can cause a variety of other problems for users (like Maven coordinate changes). Since you are a committer already, it would be great if you could help out on the Axiom/Woden side, and maybe encourage Axis folks to start submitting pull requests and such here and getting involved here. I’d love to be able to vote more of them in as committers and PMC members.
