Just recently started work on a project which requires the use of WS-Security. I was initially skeptical about the whole WS-* stack in general, especially with the REST/SOAP debate that's so hot recently. My own design philosophy favors simplicity anyway, and just trying to follow the WS-* specs makes me dizzy.
So imagine my surprise when I stumble across Sun's webservices stack! Why didn't I think to look to the gatekeeper of Java? Because it didn't come from Apache or the the Codehaus? (Hani would laugh at that one.) I had been using trusty Axis for well over a year now, but WSS4J is lagging behind and doesn't even have any downloadable release out. Worse, I'd be forced to upgrade to the yet-to-be-released Axis 1.2? Thank you Sun, no thanks, Apache.
Oh, and what's this? Sun and Microsoft are playing well with each other? We'll see shortly just how true that is.
