Hi Tony,
and welcome. We have several areas where you could help, but your in-depth
knowledge of the WSDL 2.0 spec could easily be put to good use straight
away on functional testing of the Woden processor - through the creation of
WSLD 2.0 test docs in the W3C suite and writing corresponding junit
testcases in Woden.
Lawrence and I are working on Milestone 2 due at the end of this week,
which should provide enough functionality to start doing some useful WSDL
2.0 testing and provide a good base for yourself and others to contribute
to futher code development.
M2 should include:
* Parsing of types, interface, binding and service into a WSDL object model
represented as the Component model described in the spec and an Element
model based on the XML mappings.
* a binding extensibility mechanism with an initial implementation for SOAP
bindings
* validation logic for types and interface
* Woden 'framework' features such as factory, reader, error reporter, etc.
We also have a recent offer from Guillaume Nodet who is willing to
participate in testing and code development, so perhaps from December we
can start accelerating the development of Woden. I will take some time out
from code development early next week to compile a list of tasks and
priorities and to (finally) get some design and user documentation onto the
Woden website. We can then discuss further how you would like to
participate.
Meantime, these are some of the sort of tasks that come to mind...
WSDL 2.0 function outstanding at M2:
* extended interfaces
* WSDL import and include
* URI catalog resolver (e.g. Apache xml-commons Resolver)
* Serialization
* Validation of binding and service (Lawrence will be working on this for
M3)
* Extensibility for attributes and elements, but the latter may be covered
by the binding extensibility due in M2
* Types system extensibility - we currently support XML Schema but need
support by extension for other type systems, as per WSDL 2.0 spec.
Other non-WSDL 2.0 function:
* more readWSDL options in WSDLReader
* WSDL 1.1 to 2.0 conversion
* Parser extensibility (current implementation is DOM/JAXP based, support
for StAX is required)
regards,
John Kaputin

Tony, thanks for volunteering and welcome to the team. As Arthur said,
Woden currently needs a lot of help with testing against the WSDL 2.0 spec.
John and I have had limited time to create test case documents and
implement JUnit tests. With your knowledge of the spec this is probably a
good fit. Aside from testing there is lots of work to be done on opening
Woden for extension (of types and extensibility elements) as well as
importing/including documents into a single model. John can give guidance
on exactly where help is needed in this area.
