+1 for Nandana as the Release Manager

I would also like to see the memory leak fixed for a 1.4.1 release : https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-3870

How do we suggest bugs/fixes to be included in the 1.4.1 release ? In Jira ?

+ 1 from me.



    IMHO, we should use 1.4 branch. The *ONLY* change should be the
    security change. Nothing more.

I think we need to fix any possible other critical issues as well.
eg. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-3870
This is a memory leak and we need to fix this.

thanks,
Amila.



    thanks,
    dims
