- <title>Rationale for Releasing Axis 1.0</title>
+
+<section>
+ <title>Axis 1.2 and beyond</title>
+<p>
+Axis 1.1 has proven itself to be a reliable and stable base on which to
+implement Java Web Services. There is a very active
+<link href="http://ws.apache.org/axis/mail.html">user community</link>
+ and there a many companies who use Axis for Web Service
+support in their products.
+</p>
<p>
-Many users have requested a v1.0 so that they can work from a relatively
-stable base. Some users have even remained on Apache SOAP until v1.0 of
-Axis is available. Now Axis has surpassed Apache SOAP in function,
-performance, and interoperability and, in particular, has passed Sun's
-JAX-RPC and SAAJ compliance tests, we decided to ship v1.0 as it
-currently stands.
+For Axis 1.2, we are focusing on our document/literal support to better address the
+<link href="http://www.ws-i.org/Profiles/Basic/2003-08/BasicProfile-1.0a.html">WS-I Basic Profile 1.0</link>
+ and <link href="http://java.sun.com/xml/downloads/jaxrpc.html">JAX-RPC 1.1</link> specifications.
+And we are fixing as many bug as possible.
</p>
<p>
-However, this is far from the end of the road for Axis: there is more
-documentation to be written; the SOAP v1.2 spec. needs to be tracked to
-completion and implemented fully; major functional enhancements and
-architectural improvements are being considered. We particularly encourage
-you to submit improvements to the documentation, however large or small and
-in any format, to axis-dev@ws.apache.org. Also, interoperability
-is always a concern, so please report all <i>replicatable</i> bugs.
+We can always use <b>your</b> help. Here are some links to help you help us:
