I agree with the wider usefulness of AXIOM - it's a very clean model for
many different types of processing. +1 on the move.

I think there is more benefit to this than just the WS-Policy.
For example, AXIOM could be used by any of a number of projects that
need a lazily-built tree. In Synapse, we use AXIOM extensively just to
parse our config. And also, although Synapse has a heavy dependency on
Axis2, the core model of Synapse was built to only depend on AXIOM. So
I think this is worth doing now.
It also seems to me that Axiom is pretty stable, which motivates it.
But I agree, Dims, if that was the only reason, then it would be
simple to fix. But the circular dependency is just an outcome of AXIOM
getting wider usage as an XML model

Sanjiva,
I have no problem doing it. I did not see a *strong* need from a code
dependency point of view. If we just want do it, because we want to do
it, then it's fine :)
I was just pointing out that "circular dependency" is not an issue
:) :)
