Hi Eric;
Thanks very much for the comments, regarding the comments you
basically address the OM Performance and documentations. There were
some performance comparisons on OM but I will leave it for a OMer to
answer.
regarding the documentations let us start the discussion on
documentation/samples. From your comments I extracted
* Missing documentation on how to migrate from Axis 1.X
* No demonstration of Axis 1.X interoperability
Shall we start with documentations what we have, there can be found at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/webservices/axis/trunk/java/xdocs/.
If you like to contribute good way will be to have a look at the
documents we have and let us know where they miss information or can
be improved (send a mail to dev list and add Jira issues). Can you
add JIRA(http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/BrowseProject.jspa?id=10611)
issues for two
* Missing documentation on how to migrate from Axis 1.X
* No demonstration of Axis 1.X interoperability
I can add them, but better to have you as the reporter of the issue.
put "samples, build,site & docs" as the component.
Thanks
Srinath

Interesting ... I've heard the opposite from someone else :-) (not about
Glen's prez but about the docs!).

+1 to putting these.

Why? AXIOM has significant value inside Axis2 .. just think of
implementing a pass-thru scenario. Maybe we need to illustrate its value
to Axis2 itself more so that people don't ask "Why YAXOM?".

This has been done; pls check the list archives.

I think if you could write a table of contents for what docs you think
you'd find useful and what you'd like to see in them that would be a
good start. (Please go down to at least 3 levels in the TOC.) Then you
can even start writing some of the stuff ;-).
In any case, +1 for getting the docs lined up right before we go to 1.0.
Sanjiva.

I'm following the Apache Axis 2.0 project with some interest. At this
time, though, I find I cannot recommend it for use at my company for at
least the following reasons:
* Need better documentation on how to use - something like the
Apache Axis 1.X tutorials would help. The current docs seem to
trail off at some critical points, and are very developer, rather
than user focused. (I note that Glen Daniel's recent presentation
had some useful content.)
* Missing documentation on how to migrate from Axis 1.X
* No demostration of Axis 1.X interoperability
* AXIOM seems unproven. Showing how you can use AXIOM separate from
its use in Axis would help prove its value. Also, it strikes me
that some genuine benchmarks comparing the raw performance of
Xerces DOM with AXIOM might be revealing.
I'm not meaning to cause argument. Rather, I'm looking to trigger a
discussion of what sorts of documentation, if any, should be included as
part of the "features" list, 'cause I know that more documentation will
help some people out.
I'll even contribute if I can, although I don't know how likely that is.
-Eric.
