My -1 was for adding this to the Axis code.  I'd be all for having the 
schema stuff go in as a separate project (like with WSIF) and having Axis 
use it.
Having it as a separate project helps separate the concerns a bit more and 
would allow more freedom to synchronize this work (if appropriate) with 
things like what eclipse is putting together, etc, while not adding a more 
direct bulk to the Axis code.  Perhaps an xml-axis-xsd project?

Re: [VOTE] Re: XML Schema support for Axis (Contrib from Infravio)



James,

Is this a good enough reason for a -1? Eclipse XSD drags in 3+ jars, the 
code is not available via
cvs, we cannot make changes to it anyway since it is not an Apache 
project. If you care to see the
Bugzilla for Axis, you will see why we need something ASAP.

Please consider changing your VOTE to -0.

Thanks,
dims
