Sanjiva, Most of the java based alphaworks contains also sources. The 'problem' however is that alhaworks is (of course) ibm based. so all the special calls to devices and api's have to be included in the com.ibm.* classes. XMI dependency I agree, still usefull? Also one other question remains, that namespacing should be used in a matter so that all platforms can access it in their way. --- I know I am on thin ice now --- have to be carefull with what I say ---
Thank god for opensource, or better yet, thank everybody for opensource. It makes life easier. I solved some interop problems with this. The complete xml server and tools are opensource. GPL-licenced. It is important in keeping this up to keep the copyright notices in the sources where they belong. Still the servers are also available for other platforms not specific ibm, but also for other platforms. Take a look at this: http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/ Here you will find some (re)sources http://www.garshol.priv.no/download/xmltools/plat_ix.html Is also a site with good information.

If you look at the docs for Apache SOAP v2.2 (http://xml.apache.org/soap/docs/index.html) you will see all the dependencies listed. Some of the dependencies are IBM originated (like BSF and the SMTP/POP3 beans we used). The XMI dependency (does anyone care about that any more?) is on some alphaWorks code, but everything else is open-source and freely available I believe!
