It seems to me to make sense to keep these shared items in a commons
project for now, thought if it was otherwise sitting on the sidewalk
holding out a cup, I could make an argument for hosting it in CXF.
These guys may all even share a certain set of techological problems
involving complex data structures and multiple representations.

Were I a member of the ASF, I might be wondering if there is some
structural novelty that would make sense for code that is deeply
interesting to multiple projects and not that useful by itself. For
example, we could have a scheme wherein all CXF and Axis committers
were 'ex-officio' committers on XmlSchema. A sort of a DMZ.
