Current Roadmap for future versions of CXF. (this is an ongoing "work in progress", subject to change.)

CXF versions 2.0.x

These should just be a bug fix releases for bugs users encounter with 2.0.x versions. These will be done on a branch by selectively merging fixes from trunk/2.1.x on an as-needed basis. For the most part, there would be fixes for:

  • XFire migration issues
  • Any interopability issues
  • Critical show stoppers
  • etc....
    In general, 2.0.x releases occur about every 12 weeks.

CXF version 2.1.x

These should just be a bug fix releases for bugs users encounter with 2.1.x versions. These will be done on a branch by selectively merging fixes from trunk on an as-needed basis. For the most part, there would be fixes for:

  • XFire migration issues
  • Any interopability issues
  • Critical show stoppers
  • etc....
    However, some new features have been back ported from the 2.2 branch (trunk) to provide some new functionality to users quicker. These include:
  • Continuations
  • True asynchronous client requests
  • Request/Response contexts for simple frontend clients and Dynamic clients
  • New spring based JMS transport

In general, 2.1.x releases occur about every 8 weeks.

CXF version 2.2

New features are being developed here to be released "when ready". The current plan is in Q1/09, but subject to slippage if we the features aren't releasable. Features on the roadmap include:

  • JAX-RS 1.0 support
  • WS-SecurityPolicy support
  • WS-Trust support
  • WS-SecureConversation support

Future version - some will likely go into 2.2

  • XmlBeans tooling (wsdl2java support)
  • JiBX databinding (runtime, tooling is lower priority)
  • Better Acegi integration
  • Other WS-* stuff
  • No labels
