Starting a new project..

[Larry Meadors <lm...@apache.org>]

..and want to know if I should use axis1 or axis2.

The target date for completion is about 8 weeks out.

I need these to be secure (both in terms of authentication and
authorization), and I see that both Axis and Axis2 use WSS4J (the
WS-Security specification's implementation for Java), so it looks like
either way, I can do that. Any issues with using one version over the
other?

I am almost a blank slate at this point (I have done one other web
service a year or so ago with axis1), and looking for advice to help
get off on the right foot. :-)

More questions to add:
 - what are the advantages of using axis2 over axis1?
 - what are the risks and benefits of each version?
