+                    Apache Axiom Team is pleased to announce the release of 
Axiom x.y.z. The release is available

+                    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 is an easy to use API
+                    with a very high performant architecture!

+                    Developed as part of Apache Axis2, Apache Axiom 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.
