Metro Web Services .NET 3.5 Plugfest 3/08 Results

4 Sun development engineers (myself, Jiandong, Rama and Marek) were at Microsoft's Redmond campus last week to participate in the latest plugfest to test interoperability between future releases of Metro Web Services and Windows Communication Foundation in .NET 3.5.

Note: our shipping product, Metro 1.0 (built into GlassFish V2 UR1 and runs in other web containers---e.g., Tomcat), interoperates with .NET 3.0 based on mostly non-standard specifications. What we tested at this plugfest was our current development codebase that will interoperate with .NET 3.5 based on standard specifications. If you are interested in the interop results for our shipping products see the Metro 1.0 Status Notes.

We tested Security, Trust 1.3, SecureConversation 1.3, ReliableMessaging 1.1, MTOM and Addressing. Here are our results. The test results are in line with our expections for this point in our development cycle.

We will be continuously running the above tests along with the rest of the interop scenarios as we work toward Metro / .NET 3.5 interop for a release sometime in 2008. Check out Jiandong's, Marek's and Rama's blogs for more details on interop results from this plugfest.
