Update CXF stack to version 2.2.6
---------------------------------

                 Key: GERONIMO-5153
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-5153
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: webservices
    Affects Versions: 2.2
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Alexandros Karypidis
             Fix For: 2.2.1, 3.0


CXF has recently released versions 2.1.9 and 2.2.6. According to the project 
lead, the 2.1 line will now be phased out (Geronimo uses 2.1.4). Therefore 
Geronimo should consider switching to 2.2.6 for the future.

Reasons for this to occur immediately:

1) CXF 2.2.6 is being advertized as one of the most stable versions to date:

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/cxf-users/201001.mbox/%[email protected]%3e

2) It appears to be a one -line change. I am totally inexperienced with 
Geronimo (a new user) that ran into some issues and decided to try the update 
myself on the 2.2 branch. I succeeded with just changing the "cxfVersion" 
property of the top-level POM and re-building. See:
