Apache Axis2/C 1.4

We have just released Apache Axis2/C 1.4.

Here is the release note.

The key improvement to note is the default parser used. It used to be libxml2, but with this release, we are using our own Guththila parser as the default parser. The rationale for making that the default parser is that it is faster and it also solves some threading problems that we faced with libxml2 in some situations.

I must mention the great contributions made by Supun to make Guthila implementation faster and Dinesh who started the Guththila implementation in the first place.
