Why WS-Addressing ?

I've been asked this question multiple times and so finally decided to convert an internal presentation that into an external document.

Why WS-Addressing ? describes the different use cases served by WS-Addressing and explains the two commonly used versions.

JAX-WS 2.1 RI EA2 was recently released and supports W3C and Member Submission WS-Addressing. A more recent version of this RI is integrated in WSIT which is then integrated in GlassFish 2 days ago. Read about WS-Addressing support in JAX-WS 2.1 RI here.
