4. WHERE TO START

This distribution contains documentation and two sample applications illustrating the features of Spring-WS.

A great way to get started is to review and run the sample applications, supplementing with reference manual
material as needed. You will require Maven 2, which can be downloaded from http://maven.apache.org/, for building
Spring-WS. To build deployable .war files for all samples, simply access the "samples" directory and
execute the "mvn package" command, or run "mvn jetty:run" to run the samples directly in a Jetty 6 Web container.

More information on deploying Spring-WS sample applications can be found at:
	samples/readme.txt
