=== Proposal for supporting WS-MetadataExchange on Axis2 ===

Metadata Exchange is an implementation to support WS-MetadataExchange 
specification published by IBM, Microsoft, BEA Systems, SAP, and Sun 
Microsystems. The WS-MetadataExchange specification essentially allows for a 
service requester to issue a standardized request message that ask for some or 
all of the metadata documents such as WSDL, XSD schema, policy associated with 
a Web service. The request to issue is a Get Metadata request message. This 
kicks off a standardized request and response MEP resulting in the delivery of 
a Get Metadata Response message.

To support incoming Get Metadata request message from SOAP protocol engines, 
Axis2 SOAP processing is extended with new metadataExchange module, and allows 
plug-in of Data Locators. Data Locator is responsible to perform data 
retrieval. The plug-in support allows other Web Services engines that build on 
top of Axis2 to support different data retrieval implementation.
