The Apache Incubator CXF team is proud to announce the availability of 
the 2.0.4 release! 

Apache CXF is an open source services framework. CXF helps you build
and develop services using frontend programming APIs, like JAX-WS. These 
services can speak a variety of protocols such as SOAP, XML/HTTP, 
RESTful HTTP, or CORBA and work over a variety of transports such as 
HTTP, JMS or JBI. 


CXF includes a broad feature set, but it is primarily focused on the 
following areas: 
 
* Web Services Standards Support: CXF supports a variety of web service 
standards including SOAP, the Basic Profile, WSDL, WS-Addressing, 
WS-Policy, WS-ReliableMessaging, and WS-Security. 
 
* Frontends: CXF supports a variety of "frontend" programming models. CXF    
provides a JAX-WS Compliant frontend. It also includes a "simple 
frontend" which allows creation of clients and endpoints without    
annotations. CXF supports both contract first development with WSDL and    
code first development starting from Java. 
 
* Ease of use: CXF is designed to be intuitive and easy to use. There    
are simple APIs to quickly build code-first services, Maven plug-ins to    
make tooling integration easy, JAX-WS API support, Spring 2.0 XML 
support to make configuration a snap, and much more. 
 
This release is mostly a patch release to fix problems and issues (over 
50 JIRA items resolved) that users have encountered in the 
2.0.3-incubator release.
