Continuation of JAXWS 2.0.1 RI...

Last month we released JAXWS 2.0.1 M1 which was a major re-architecture of JAXWS 2.0 RI for performance and pluggability. After the release we got many other requirements such as

• WS-Addressing implementation
• Asynchronous stack
  • server side asynchrony
  • Pipe->Tube and Fiber features
• JAXWS 2.1 MR specification implementation
• Integration of JAXB 2.1 RI
• Type substitution
• Tools improvement

Among the above requirements, the implementation of JAXWS 2.1 MR specification means that we would change the version number from JAXWS 2.0.1 to JAXWS 2.1 to align with the spec that this RI implements. So going forward the JAXWS release will be versioned 2.1 and not 2.0.1, such as JAXWS 2.1. See the JAXWS roadmap for detailed feature list and release plan.

We would like to hear from you so please send your feedback to users@jax-ws.dev.java.net.
