IBM have announced version 6.0 of their flagship application server, Websphere.
The next release is stated to have improvements across the board, and doesn’t include any one major new change, but rather offers improvements in Web Service support and SOA support.
New versions of WebSphere Studio Site Developer and WebSphere Studio Application Developer are also scheduled to be available by the end of this year. The products will be renamed Rational Web Developer for WebSphere Software and Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software.
