Hi John,

Thank you for your comments. Please see my responses inline.

   The Japanese community has just been launched as a family
of Axis User Group. It's just a Japanese-specific community
to basically discuss the user-level issues of existing Axis
(English version) in Japanese. So, we don't have a Japanese
version of Axis at this time, we hope to have it in the near
future though.

   We also have a plan to do an information exchange service
between the main lists (English) and the Japanese community
when any meaningful discussion comes up.  For this reason,
you don't have to subscribe the jp mailing list at all times.

   However, we'd like to welcome you (and anyone) who can
understand Japanese. In particular, an Axis C++ committer(or
a developer) will be well-received by the community, because
only one Axis committer (me) is active on it now.

   Thanks for the report. I'll briefly change the link to
'http://wiki.apache.org/ws/FrontPage/AxisCPP' later.

Thanks,
Toshi <toshi@apache.org>
