Hi Arthur,

I agree to release Axe in the Lepido project first. Then the WTP team 
will be able to see it in action. Axe will be delivered with some 
examples : Cocoon editors and also a beginning of web.xml editor.
In a second step, Axe could be moved to the webtools.

Axe is now based on the SSE and works with the last WTP release. The 
initial contribution for the Lepido project will be available in a 
couple of weeks.

Regards,
