follows common Java idioms. I don't think this will be a

I like this approach too. I think that this compromise
addresses the
requirements that we discussed before, a simple handwritten POJO
model, easy to extend, integration with StAX, and ability to
generate
loaders at some point for people who would like to extend Tuscany
without writing XML parsing code. I'm also very happy to see the
introduction of new options to generate simpler SDOs and
support SDOs
defined by Java interfaces in addition to XSD (which is a very
important scenario that came up several times on this list). With
some minor hacks to the SDO code generator, I was able to generate
this morning the pure JavaBean model that Frank describes in
step (a)
and I'm now starting to look at step (b). I should have a first
cut
of the new model in about two days. It will be very similar to the
current logical model, but I'm thinking about checking it in the
sandbox first so that people can take a look and help shape it
- and
make sure it follows common Java idioms :) before we port the
runtime
core to it. Does that make sense?
Works for me. Once we take a look at it, I'm happy to help out
porting
the core over. Hopefully the changes won't be that significant
and we
can port it without breaking the build.
In preparation for this, how about I switch over to the StAX
loader with
the current model and check that everything is still working. We can
then remove the old physical model, transformers and SCDLModelLoader
registry in preparation for the new one?

+1 from me. Good idea.
