I'm not sure if that really is a good solution. The problem I saw
was that Axis relies on a load of other Apache libraries. I'm not sure how 
problematic the compatiblity of various library versions is. 

But doing that might work for certain Jetspeed/Axis combinations
(like it seems to work with 1.4b1/Axis 1.0) but as soon as there is another
major inclusion of a library in Turbine, the whole merge might be problematic 
again. 

Since I'm not involved in Jakarta projects I'm not really sure how
the project synchronisation is handled, all I could see was that most projects
try to keep downward compatiblity tests by extensive unit testing.

But I think the best thing would be if
axis would be merged in some way into Turbine (where it actually would fit 
perfectly into) or at least there should be some kind of coordination between 
both projects so that a merge is possible. I don't really like the idea of 
having Axis running as a separate webapp only.
