Big preliminary decisions
Well, we’ve been going strong now for a few weeks. The interest from the community seems very good and our phone calls are getting more colorful - feel free to join us every Thursday morning at 8am Pacific - I send out a notice to the wsf-dev list with the call in info each week.
So what have we decided so far?
* WEB HOSTED WSC - The initial use case that we will be using for development is the Web Hosted WSC. We’ll be focusing on 1. a WSC that uses a Discovery Service and 2. a WSC with preset EPRs using SSOS. The ClientLib will be a full implementation of the ID-WSF WSC, so any use case you can think of will be applicable. If you have one in particular that you’d like to make sure gets implemented soon - join us!
* DOM - We’ll be using DOM - likely xerces and xalan
* OpenSAML XML Tooling - We’re proud to be starting this process by using the hard work done for the OpenSAML project. They have already begun work to make it easier for us to use their code, and we expect their Java SOAP implementation to be ready soon.
* J2SE 1.5 - we’re not saying it won’t run fine on older versions, but we’ve decided to set the expectations of the Java baseline to 1.5.
* Eclipse / SVN - although you can feel free to use vi and javac, we’re going to be checking in our code with svn and the developers who’ve signed on will be using eclipse for the most part.
More to come! We’re just getting started, so keep on listening!

Hello,
That picture is credited as if I took it, which I didn’t. Thanks for the publicity though

Thanks for the note Jorge!! I must have been looking at your “Decisions” - which I think is very cool also.
