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
