I just read David Bosschaert's blog entry [1] addressing questions about his RFC 119 webinar. One of his answers sparked another question, and rather than contact him directly, I decided to give the wider CXF community a crack at it.

I'd like to have the option to specify which databinding strategy to use with DOSGI. Currently, the Aegis databinding is "hard wired". I recognize that this makes sense for most use cases, since it relieves the developer from any wsdl or xsd responsibilities. But it doesn't make sense for cross-platform use cases (which, interestingly, David mentions right after the question "Why don't you use JaxWS?").

The default wsdls produced by the Aegis databinding are not easily usable cross-platform. I wouldn't want to provide a developer with a wsdl that specifies arg0, arg1, and arg2 as argument names, for example.

Is there interest in allowing the databinding strategy to be configurable in the DOSGI reference implementation? If so, I'd be happy to work on a patch.
