I'm sorry for the disparity of opinion here, but I have to quibble with both of my colleagues. Aegis works fine with JAX-WS. If you've got a case in which it fails, please file a JIRA. I can see Glen's point that working with standards to start out has advantages, but maps in JAX-B are a giant pain. We have no intention of 'deprecating' Aegis or removing it. It might be CXF-specific, but it's not legacy. I personally don't understand why the people at Snoracle can't be bothered to enhance the standards to be less annoying (not to mention advancing to XML 1.1).
