It may be worth mentioning that you can use xsdconfig files to override
the default mapping from a given namespace to a package name and pick
anything you want. (Although the package name you pick obviously has to
be a valid Java package name - so you can't have just numbers).

You will then have to keep the xsdconfig file with the schema of course
but that may help you.

A link was recently posted in another mail on this list to an article
explaining how all this works -
http://dev2dev.bea.com/pub/a/2004/11/Configuring_XMLBeans.html.

Cheers,

Lawrence
