AXIS beta 2 under way...

[Russell Butek <bu...@us.ibm.com>]

In the weekly chat today we decided it's time for another beta.  In view of
this, we - the committers - should concentrate on two things this week:
documentation and bugzilla.  We should not add anything new to AXIS until
the beta is released, hopefully mid-week next week.

- Glen will run a fine-toothed comb through the User's Guide.
- I will go through the sample readme's
- I will write the changes-from-beta1-to-beta2 document
- We should grow the FAQ.

1. There is that security bug I filed : all the .class files behind .jws
endpoints are visible; should just be  web.xml patch

2. I was thinking of adding a config validation jsp page that probes for
various classes being on the classpath and offers helpful diagnostics. I do
this on my own webapp with a taglib, but could do a code in JSP port in a
few minutes

<happy:happy
  classMustExist="javax.xml.soap.SOAPMessage"
  errorText="jax-rpc needs to be installed correctly; in common/lib for
Tomcat 4.0"/>
<happy:happy
  classMustExist="org.apache.axis.transport.http.AxisServlet"
  errorText="axis.jar not found"/>

3. What about my patch to WsdlToJava I submitted? Something wrong with it?
