Hello.

I'm really enjoying working with WSE 3.0, especially its policy mechanism. It allows for Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) through SoapFilters, enabling me to add functionality like security, auditing, and exception handling via configuration rather than hardcoding it into my web service. This keeps my service code clean and maintainable. I demonstrated this with a simple example of an OrderService, comparing the cleaner policy-based approach to a more complex, hardcoded alternative. The policy configuration significantly simplifies adding and managing cross-cutting concerns.
