How OLE is affected
Based on the above Rice 2.0 features, obviously, moving OLE to Rice 2.0 framework is what we should go for. However, Kuali OLE's current version is bundled with KFS, which utilizes Rice 1.x. Since Rice 2.0 was formally released on Feb 24th, 2012, it was impossible for KFS (Kuali Financial System) to upgrade to Rice 2.0 before OLE 0.6 release. It is not realistic to abandon KFS and one-year's worth of implementation based on that and to rebuild our own financial system for OLE. So for the OLE 0.6 release we set up two servers, one for OLE with KFS/Rice1.x to keep our financial functions and one for OLE on Rice2.0 to try the new features and see what kind of benefits it can bring for OLE. Since Rice 1.x can not talk with Rice 2.0 through the KSB (Kuali Service Bus), therefore, the communication between two servers geso through SOAP services like this simple drawing for the architecture.
