|

| Other than that, keep up the good work!

| I think we all have to agree we can not do a release  with zero  jiras.
|
| When we do a release what we do is we go though the JIRA list and see
| what are the issues we need to fix for the release and fix them. I know
| some of the issues might be very critical for you but not for others.
| However we as developer have to do a general judgment and choose what we
| want to fix for a give release.

| Please forgive me for that and one  thing we have to understand is we
| are doing open source development. No one pays for the developers so
| most of the developers are doing voluntary works. So once they have free
| time they will fix your issues. (If there are any JIRA issues against me
| I will do that )

|
| It is yes and no answer. When I talked to Axis2 users one of the
| positive feedback I got is the level of support we have.  I know it is
| good if we can improve that some more , but I can not agree that user
| does not get support from the mailing list. One of the thing I do every
| day is going though the mailing list and answer them as much as I can.
| Sometime I spend more than 2-3 hrs for that.
|
| Not to market any companies, but I know few companies doing professional
| support for Axis2 , so if you want to get the answer quickly that would
| be a very good option. :)

| May be you can help us to fix those issues , we as developers more than
