<h2>Known Issues</h2>
<ol>
-<li>The AJAX dynamic client feature is still at an experimental stage. It
-has been successfully tested for simple types, simple type arrays and complex
-types but we still do not support complex type arrays.</li>
-
-<li>POJO to Web service feature is still at an experimental stage. One can
-upload jar/zip file and can create an AAR out of it. If you uploaded a
-jar/zip file which has the semantics of an AAR, when its transformed into AAR
-its services.xml will be replaced by the generated services.xml. In addition
-to this, the user cannot give associate any library dependencies or web
-content with the generated AAR file.
-<ul><li>
-Due to limitations in Axis2, method overloading is not supported, and
-hence the WSDL for services where methods are overloaded cannot be generated.
-Hence all WSDL based functionality related to services will not work.
-</li></ul>
-</li>
-
-<li>Once in a while user might encounter the message
-"Your session has expired please login". When this happens, you will be
-automatically logged out. The user can re-login and carry on with
-his work.</li>
-
-<li>WS-Policy support is still in the experimental stage and limited to
-single port scenarios.</li>
-
-<li>You cannot have two different versions of the Apache Sandesha2 module
-in the system.
