We have implementation of SCA parser based on DOM api [1]. As long as Spring or Blueprint allows to access document does it will work [2]. Not sure if JAXB will be capable to handle that and last thing I would like to see is hand written mapping between elements and DSL representations. The main problem with Spring/Aries are multiple schema locations. Both expects only one. This impiles creation of composite schemas which imports all others [3]. As long as Catalog/Schema resolver is able to follow include and import statements it should work. Someone just need experiment. ;-)
