+Welcome to Apache CXF!
+======================
+Apache CXF is an open source services framework. CXF helps you build and 
+develop services using frontend programming APIs, like JAX-WS and JAX-RS. 
+These services can speak a variety of protocols such as SOAP, XML/HTTP, 
+RESTful HTTP, or CORBA and work over a variety of transports such as HTTP,
+JMS or JBI.
+
+CXF includes a broad feature set, but it is primarily focused on the following 
+areas:
+
+- Web Services Standards Support: CXF supports a variety of web service 
+  standards including SOAP, the Basic Profile, WSDL, WS-Addressing, 
+  WS-Policy, WS-ReliableMessaging, WS-Security, WS-SecurityPolicy,
+  WS-SecureConversation, and WS-Trust.
+- Frontends: CXF supports a variety of "frontend" programming models. CXF
+  implements the JAX-WS APIs. It also includes a "simple frontend" which 
+  allows creation of clients and endpoints without annotations. CXF supports 
+  both contract first development with WSDL and code first development 
+  starting from Java.  There is also a JAX-RS frontend for providing 
+  REST support.
+- Ease of use: CXF is designed to be intuitive and easy to use. There 
+  are simple APIs to quickly build code-first services, Maven plug-ins to 
+  make tooling integration easy, JAX-WS API support, Spring 2.x XML support 
+  to make configuration a snap, and much more.
+- Binary and Legacy Protocol Support: CXF has been designed to provide a 
+  pluggable architecture that supports not only XML but also non-XML type 
+  bindings, such as JSON and CORBA, in combination with any type of transport.
+
+

+software using or performing cryptographic functions with asymmetric
+algorithms.  The form and manner of this Apache Software Foundation
+distribution makes it eligible for export under the License Exception
+ENC Technology Software Unrestricted (TSU) exception (see the BIS
