A wonderful act of a friendship...

Y'day, I was in my garden near the well , giving a bath to our Doggy. Soon after finishing that I heard two noises, 'thump' 'thump'... very near to me. I saw a snake rushing away and a squirrel limping towards bushes. I managed to hold the Doggy as I saw another two squirrels stepping towards the limping one. In next few minutes I saw one of the the sweetest things in my life. A one squirrel came and helped the wounded one to climb to a coconut tree nearby. I had my second thoughts to go away and bring my camera to capture this. I was there holding our dog, seeing this wonderful act of a friendship. What a lesson ... :)

Rampart/C is now fully inter-operable with Rampart/Java and IBM's latest WSDL2 implementation. This has been proven in the WS-Policy interop held in Ottawa, Canada(May 23rd-25th).
They have published results here. (See Table 11, 12, 13, 14).
Thanks Manjula and Chinthaka for making this a success. :).
Hmm... I feel I should submit these results to folks who rejected Manjula's visa application on behalf of Canadian embassy ;) in Sri Lanka.
