Good Afternoon
with so many people having access to Axis source my greatest fear of unstable 
non-functional Axis distros has now come true
Specifically some of the Axis Rampart 1.6.x  supported algorithms are no longer 
functioning in Axis 1.7.xhttp://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=1087600&view=rev

accordingly I am going to request some minor ground rules before checking in 
any axis code:
1)run all testcases for the entire Axis distro..if you see errors or failures 
from testcases on your local box do NOT checkin the code
Unit tests for code from any Apache Project that errors out or produces 
failures should never be checked in
2)request your code be reviewed by Andreas Veithen, Robert Lazarski or some 
other senior resource for review BEFORE checkin

3)if andreas or robert or senior resource says not ready for primetime label 
your version of the distro as either Axis-Rampart-SNAPSHOT 
OR Axis-Rampart-<version>-beta...this alerts one and all who pull the 
experimental distro that the distro is not yet commercially viable
For 10 years Axis has been proven the superior technology WebService Technology 
stack implemented in many world wide institutions
It would be helpful to all of the organizations who currently implement Axis to 
keep Axis Functionality stable 
Many Thanks for your efforts in making Axis the best WebService Technology 
Stack ASF has to offer
Martin
