Hi Martin Great work. Could you post a link to this thread in the JIRA using eg a nabble link? And post your questions on the JIRA. Then we wont forget to look into this when we get the time to add your patch.
The idea with an enum to select the impl. is good, as we can JAXB it so its selectable from spring DSL as well. It should probably default to the current impl.
