There is a discussion [1] on the Axis2 dev list about the time line of Axis2 1.5 and we will be releasing a Rampart 1.5 just after Axis2 1.5 release. There has been some critical fixes in Rampart too so the timing will be jut great. thanks, nandana [1] - http://markmail.org/message/fluu55cg3ytld5ls?q=list:org%2Eapache%2Ews%2Eaxis-dev > -----Original Message----- > From: Nandana Mihindukulasooriya [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2008 9:59 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Externalize Policy/Rampart Config on server side > > Hi Bob, > > 1.
