1) in the binary distribution shall we have the security and RM
modules included. that way we have the complete WS-Stack re lase. (Or
may be we can have a separate dist for that).
2) I believe we should consider XML Beans or JAXB as our principal
data binding option. It is usual belief JAXB is faster.May be we
should try it too. At least to me data binding is already solved
problems and do not worth additional effort.
to me data binding is usually done badly. I like the graphs you can walk
around. There is some new Nux code out to do better Stax/xom binding
incidentally.
XmlBeans is much purer than JAXB, but still wrong, as it imposes a java
type model. Two Xmlbeans nodes are not equivalent if they are loaded in
different classloaders, or contain different text/attributes/names.
Whereas in XML, similar contents implies equivalence. Its when you get
WS-A addresses as return values and want axis to use them as eprs that
you discover the details of this.
