One little troublespot with the profile is that unless IBM and Microsoft are willing to adapt their IPR licensing policy for WSSecurity, there may shortly not be any functional open source WS-Security implementations the summary of the current state is: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=incubator-general&m=111894292828449&w=2 and the licenses in question are http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/ip/standards/ http://www.ibm.com/ibm/licensing/977Q/2112.shtml Unless these two vendors come to an amenable position, there isn't going to be an apache implementation (and that includes an end to WSS4J), which is going to prevent it from entering the 'community' section, or being broadly used. Now, who was planning on using WSS4J in their products? -steve
