hi Tushar,

to implement new things in WSIF is a substantial work and not one module 
is needed (at least i do not know about it) - it is more of overall 
architecture changes to make doc/literal and XML Infoset easier to use 
(such as complex types) and async/messaging interactions (with 
WS-Addressing, JMS,  ...). that requires very deep understanding of WSIF 
so i am not sure if it is appropriate for you Master's Project though if 
such proposal was done and implemented it would an impressive amount of 
work appreciated by WSIF users ;-)

thanks,

alek
