Apache CXF graduates
April 15th, 2008Its hard to believe that its been 20-some months since we originally started merging XFire and Celtix.
In this space of time the project has:
- Released a number of milestones
- Released five highly stable 2.0.x releases
- Implemented many different WS standards
- Provided an easy migration path for XFire users (with some minor exceptions - most notably JiBX users still need to be catered to)
- Passed the JAX-WS 2.0 TCK
- Embarked on JAX-WS 2.1 and I believe there will be a 2.1 CXF release very soon which implements this.
How time flies - I can’t believe its been 4 some years since XFire was started in my spare time. I think this was my first commit of the StAX incarnation, but it started a few months before that.
Alright, enough gratuitous self-reflection. Thanks to all of those in the project who helped us get this far and looking forward to seing where we can go in the future!
