Cliff,

Sorry for the confusion.  I am new to the XMLBeans community.  The "we"
I meant was the XMLBeans team at BEA, which includes Cezar and Radu
among others.  I sent the message on behalf of the team after it was
reviewed and agreed upon by the team members.

Subject: Re: schema metadata location change for v2

James,

Having not seen you very involved in the XMLBeans community, I  
suspect you are unaware of how things work here.  Decisions such as  
the one you describe below are made by the committers and the PMC,  
not by any one person or their company.  When you say "we will  
change" and "we apologize", I'm not sure who "we" refers to.  If you  
were a committer or PMC member, I would assume "we" refered to that  
group making a decision on behalf of the Apache XMLBeans users, but  
since you are not, your post is a little confusing to me.

I suspect this is just a case of mistranslating one's role at a  
contributing company into the Apache decision-making process; others  
have made the same mistake before.  I just want to make it clear how  
decisions are made here.

Cliff Schmidt
PMC Chair, Apache XMLBeans
