No one really ended up with having the time to implement it.  :-(

Unfortunately, it hasn't really been a priority for me as none of IONA's 
paying customers have even asked for it at all.  (plus, the fact many of 
us have never even used JiBX at all doesn't help)    Even the xmlbeans 
support is limitted right now.   I started working on it when there was 
some interest, but the interested party changed to JAXB and I never 
really had time to go back and do the tooling side of things as other 
priorities kept popping up.

That said, if you are interested in working on it, I'd be more than happy 
to help be a mentor.  Getting basic runtime support working is probably 
not very hard since JiBX has stax API's already. (if I remember 
correctly)  Tooling might be trickier as the only data model we have in 
the tooling right now is jaxb so I'm not sure how "abstracted out" it is 
yet.  (From experience, if code supposedly supports N plugins, if N==1, 
there is usually something that was forgotten or not properly abstracted 
to fully support the N>1 case.)
