XMLBeans going open source
Steven's already posted his opinion on XMLBeans moving to Apache. He's made himself an ASF sponsor of the proposal to bring XMLBeans to the ASF. Steven's post focused on the political end of the proposal. Most of his reasoning would be subsumed by my repeated postings here, so I won't repeat myself.
I'm also interested in seeing XMLBeans go open source, even if it ultimately doesn't end up at the ASF. The reason is simple. Most of the API's that we have for dealing with XML suck. I think that we can do a lot better, and XMLBeans looks pretty good. The open source community needs to start thinking about targeted areas for improvement. The whole XML API area is ripe for this.
Having XMLBeans go open source is much better than having it go to the JCP. I'm planning to try and help shepherd this through the Apache incubator.
