Let me add a vote for splitting the lists - current emails are split
between the two areas, but most people are probably only interested in
one area. Castor is a busy list, so cutting the volume in half would be
a real help.
I'm personally interested in the manual mapping from XML to Java (not as
much in the code generation from Schema). Is this being actively
extended by someone now? There are some enhancements I'd like to look
into implementing. I'd prefer to wait until the 0.9.4 version of the
code is released before starting work, since it sounds like a lot has
changed in the current CVS version. Any thoughts on when this might occur?
Thanks,
- Dennis
