<h1>Axis2 Release Notes</h1>

<h3>May 4th, 2006</h3>
-<p>After nearly two years of development, we are very proud to announce the release of Apache Axis2 1.0!</p>
+<p>After nearly two years of development, we are very proud to announce the
+release of Apache Axis2 1.0!</p>
<p><a href="http://ws.apache.org/axis2">http://ws.apache.org/axis2</a></p>
-<p>Apache Axis2 is a complete re-design and re-write of the widely
-used Apache Axis SOAP stack to build on the lessons learnt from Apache
-Axis. Apache Axis2 is more efficient, more modular and more
-XML-oriented than the older version. It is carefully designed to
-support the easy addition of plugin "modules" that extend its
-functionality for features such as security and reliability. A module
-supporting WS-Security (Apache Rampart) is available immediately and a
-module supporting WS-Reliable Messaging (Apache Sandesha) will be
-available within days.</p>
-<p>Apache Axis2 not only supports SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2, but it also
-has integrated support for the widely popular REST style of Web
-services: the same business logic implementation can offer both a WS-*
-style interface as well as a REST style interface simultaneously.</p>
-<p>Apache Axis2 is built on Apache Axiom, a new high performant,
-pull-based XML object model that was released two days ago.</p>

<h2>Known Issues and Limitations</h2>
<ul>
-<li>Recursive schemas (A includes B which includes A) may cause problems</li>
-<li>JaxMe data binding support is experimental</li>
