What is the best tool to use for developing WS's? I use Eclipse for primary development and Xdoclet but was wondering if there was something more automated.

Neither me, but i'm wondering what would be difference between running Aapche Axis with industry standards application servers like Weblogic,Oracle 9i against WSAD. From features vice, i think both Apache Axis and WSAD were same. I guess WSAD can take more load than Axis ?

I meant that the IDE (WSAD) has better wizards than what the open source Axis plug-ins for Eclipse have had (haven't checked the latest versions in a while, though).
WSAD actually has a lot of wizards for creating diffrent types of web services and web services clients. It supports both the top-down (from WSDL to web service skeleton) and bottom-up scenarios. It can also generate all the necessary web services deployment artifacts...
The latest 5.1 supports web services generation and deployment for 3 popular SOAP engines: - Apache Axis - Websphere SOAP (with JAX-RPC and JSR 109 support) - Apache SOAP.
From my personal experience it's a really helpful tool though it is oriented to IBM WAS.
