Going forward, XFire will merge with ObjectWeb’s Celtix team as the projects goals were found to be very similar. The new project will be hosted at Apache and is called CeltiXfire (CXF). “For the XFire community it can be thought of as XFire 2.0.” CXF will include REST, WS-ReliableMessaging, and WS-Policy support. Development on the project has already begun.
