Carbon is out .. come and get it!

So ... after many many months of really hard work, we just released:

• WSO2 Web Services Application Server v3.0
  
  
• WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus v2.0
  
• WSO2 Registry v2.0
  
  
• WSO2 Business Process Server v1.0
  
  

All of these are based on WSO2 Carbon, the componentized, OSGi-powered SOA framework we created.

If you want to know more about what we're trying to do with Carbon then check out Paul's awesome blog on the subject. If you want to know how we managed to pull off such a mammoth release then check out Samisa's blog. If you want to understand different aspects of Carbon then keep an eye on stuff that mentions WSO2 Carbon - many of our folks will start blogging and writing articles about it soon .. Ruwan has already started on the ESB!

Or better yet, just download the code and let us know what you think. Yes, as always, all of our products are no-gimmicks, 100% open source under Apache License 2.0.

Before I end this blog entry, I have to say how proud I am of the wonderful team of 60+ people we have in WSO2. Its been a very hard few months wrapping up 4 major product releases all at once while still serving our large paying customer base, supporting our even larger free user community and also continuing to develop and release our 10 other products. Yeah its been a tough time. But you know what, when the going gets tough, the tough get going .. and we proved that we have a tough team. Its been a privilege to be part of this phase of WSO2 and I know this is just the stepping stone to where we know we can go.

Awesome job guys!
