<b>Announcement</b>: "JBossWS-Native stack reached EOL" To view the announcement, visit: https://community.jboss.org/community/jbossws -------------------------------------------------------------- Folks, it's almost 2 years since JBossWS-CXF has been installed by default on JBoss Application Server [1]. The integration with Apache CXF has been working as expected and JBoss AS 7.1.0 achieved JavaEE 6 Full Profile compliance [2] with JBossWS-CXF [3]. The transition to having JBossWS-CXF stack as the default webservice stack is hence completed. As a result, the JBossWS-Native stack has reached end-of-life. Starting from 4.1.x version, it is only being updated for the sake of supporting the few functionalities (namely JAX-RPC) that are still internally provided through it while having JBossWS-CXF installed on the application server. Unless consistent contribution comes from the community, there's not going to be any more JBossWS-Native binary / sources distribution release at [4]. Previous JBossWS-Native releases will stay available for download and use on the supported target containers [5]. >From the current jbossws-native svn trunk few new versions (4.1.x) of JBossWS-Native libraries / artifacts are most probably going to be produced and uploaded to the Maven repository, but those are going to follow specific JBoss AS and/or JBossWS (CXF) integration needs only. A 4.0.x contribution branch (derived from JBossWS-Native 4.0.2.GA tag) has been created and is available at [6] for whoever in the community will be willing to work on that (for instance for supporting future AS versions). This does not change anything from a product point of view; Red Hat is of course still committed to fully supporting the JBossWS-Native stack in the products already including it (e.g. JBoss EAP 5) as per subscriptions contents.
