[wsf-c-dev] WSF/C runs on Android

[Damitha Kumarage]

Well done Diluka,
This is great achievement and now we have another platform running 
Axis/C. Our next step would be to make the Android ppl aware of our 
stack and meanwhile go for a cut down version of Axis2/C for small 
memory footprint suitable for a mobile platform.
thanks,
Damitha
