Sanjiva Weerawarana commented on AXIS2-371:
-------------------------------------------

We discussed this at the hackathon and the consensus was that we need to plan 
to migrate to Woden when they're ready. That is, WOM is not a strategic 
component for us but rather a tactical one. When Woden is ready for us, then we 
will take a hard dependency on it like we have for commons schema and policy. 
(That was also the convincing argument for removing the (unused) support for 
Axis* implementing the WOM interfaces.)

Standardizing on WOM right now doesn't help us because every time we need some 
data we need to copy it from the WSDL4J model to WOM and them to Axis*. So in 
effect we have to do a lot of work which we know will have to go away.

BTW this was the objective of WOM from day 1. We started that because there was 
no WSDL version independent WSDL representation around. Now Woden aims to 
become that. Its unfortunate that they didn't take WOM and build on it but 
that's ok .. we can drop this and adopt Woden when they come out (on top of 
StAX I might add .. otherwise we propogate the problem we now have of requiring 
two XML parsers).
