Hi Sergey, just to let you know, my employer has given me permission to submit my XMLBean providers to the CXF project.
I've got two classes so far that produce and consume XML and JSON from XMLBeans. I'm also going to be developing a provider class next week to provide ATOM feeds. If you still think they'd be of use I'd be happy to submit a patch as a starting point for XMLBean support within CXF. Brad.
