ANN: IBM-SOAP v1.2 released

IBM-SOAP v1.2 is now available for download at:
    http://www.alphaWorks.ibm.com/tech/soap4j

New features include:
    - support for serialializing/de-serializing of 1-dimensional arrays
      using SOAP encoding style
    - services can now be authored in scripting languages (all languages
      supported by BSF [http://www.alphaWorks.ibm.com/tech/bsf] that support
      BSF's call operation). JavaScript (Rhino) is best supported at this
      time. 
    - added a service manager client: can now deploy/undeploy/list/query
      services using a command line utility and the deployment descriptor 
      XML file
    - added support for a literal XML encoding style. A serializer/deserializer
      is pre-registered for RPC parameters which supports sending and 
      receiving parameters of type org.w3c.dom.Element without having to
      write any code at all. The addressbook example illustrates how this 
      encoding style can be used to send/receive arbitrary XML.

Thanks,

Sanjiva.
