we are proud to announce the release of Version 1.1.1 of Apache AXIOM!
(Download : http://ws.apache.org/commons/axiom/download.cgi )

NOTE: This is a bug-fix release: AXIOM 1.1 release was compiled in JDK1.5, when we have a minimum requirement of jdk 1.4 compatible
distributables. There are no new features or fixes in this release other than being compiled on JDK 1.4. The original release note follows.

Apache AXIOM is a StAX-based, XML Infoset compliant object model which
supports on-demand building  of the object tree. It supports a novel
"pull-through" model which allows one to turn off the tree  building and
directly access the underlying pull event stream. It also has built-in
support for XML  Optimized Packaging (XOP) and MTOM, the combination of
which allows XML to carry binary data  efficiently and in a transparent
manner. The combination of these results in a easy to use API with a
very  high performant architecture!

Developed as part of Apache Axis2, Apache AXIOM (AXIs Object Model)is
the core of Apache Axis2. However, it is a pure  standalone XML Infoset
model with novel features and can be used independently of Apache Axis2.
