Hi Again,
I did it a bit of poking around and it seems that no one else is using the
wsi-swa.xsd which is good. There are however two files in Axis1 C though
that are under the WS-I test license:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/webservices/axis/trunk/c/tests/auto_build/wsi/analyzerConfig.xml?view=log
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/webservices/axis/trunk/c/tests/auto_build/wsi/monitorConfig.xml?view=log

I'm not sure if these files are being distributed or not. Maybe the Axis
team can comment?

I've taken immediate action to remove these files from SVN. I'm curious to
know if any other Apache projects depend on this wsi-swa.xsd file as I
don't think its possible to use the JAXB 2.0 soap with attachments support
without referencing this file. I know the JAXWS-RI itself redistributes it,
which may have thrown us off.

Are there any WS-I experts around that can shed light on this? It is hard
to conform to the basic profile if you can't use their schemas in
projects/products - which kind of defeats the point.

I will start a thread sometime soon on legal-discuss on how to best deal
with this.
