Hi

Thanks for the response.

On the java library for the new web service item, I was not meaning to say
that the new library needs to be there, just that it is confusing to link
to the old library from the new web service page. Just zap the link until
you are ready.

Will wait for more details when Chad returns.

thanks,
Philip
