perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Loukik Kudarimoti <>]

Maxim, Yee,

Many thanks for your feedback. We will have a look into the Jclarens 
project. We definitely recognize that a single tomcat will need to 
handle multiple SOAP services. Finding the best way to bootstrap has 
been a problem.

The good news is this won't be a problem anymore. We now have a solution 
that has been tested and it works! It requires very minimal changes to 
our code base but substantial changes to the way we deploy our services. 
This new way of deploying our services will also mean that you won't 
have to download axis or exist!

You will hear from us soon.

Loukik.
