<h2>Release Notes</h2>
<p>These are the release notes for Apache WSIF 2.0.</p>
<p>WSIF (the "Web Services Invocation Framework") is a WSDL-based API for invoking WSDL-described services. It has a pluggable architecture with protocol-specific "providers" to handle invocations according to a specific protocol.</p>
<p>Apache WSIF 2.0 comes bundled with providers for SOAP (using Apache SOAP or Axis), local java classes, EJBs, JMS services and applications accessible via Java Connectors. WSIF also describes the specific WSDL extensions used to make these kinds of applications accessible as WSDL-described services.</p>
<p>Here is a list of *recent* changes to Apache WSIF (note that this is the first release, so this list of changes is not particularly illuminating).</p>

to compile WSIF if you downloaded all required jar files
<li><b>bin</b>: only binaries: just download few jar files that can not be distributed
and you are ready to run WSIF (no source code except for samples)
<li><b>all</b> = bin + src
</ul>
<li>included samples to demonstrate invocation of SOAP service, local java and service with complex types and documentation for samples.
<li><b>documentation changes</b>
factored out <a href="../readme.htm1">readme.htm1</a> into smaller pieces that are put in doc/ (like cvs and requirements)
updated doc/ with factored out info about cvs and requirements and improved build instructions,
moved wsdl_extensions to doc/ from README_files,
simplified wsif.css (much less colors, easier to read ...)
