Can't we make that work nicely? That is, it seems to me we should be able 
to allow a user to jar up all the classes of the Axis2 service, upload any 
dependent jars and then bundle all that into a classpath that is visible 
to the A1 deployer and let it go. That way we can get near the convenience 
of Axis2.

Let's get the code + the easy deployment UI integrated to WSAS 2.0!
