Hi, just posting the solution to my problem. It was very simple, but as someone pointed out, the documentation for the mapping was a little confusing (the wsdd reference says classname instead of type or languageSpecificType).
This is how you replace the standard mapping for Date:
<typeMapping type="java:java.util.Date"
qname="xsd:dateTime"
serializer="org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.CalendarSerializerFactory"
deserializer="org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.CalendarDeserializerFactory"
encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"/>
In this special case, the Calendar serializers work with Date instances if the java class specified in the mapping is Date, so I'm taking advantage of that, and not to writing a new deserializer (although this is not part of the documented class contract I'm taking my chances with it).
I'm writing now a doc on how to migrate from Apache SOAP, and this will be included.

Subject: How can I get a Date object from a xsd:dateTime
I'm migrating a service that used Apache SOAP. I need to get Date instances for my service to work. The standard Axis mapping is xsd:dateTime -> Calendar.
Is there any way I can change the default mapping? (it yields Calendar objects)
I have been trying to add a new type mapping to my wsdd for the last day but it doesn't seem to work. Otherwise, I'll have to add code to my service's entry point.
Thanks in advance,
Diego Fontdevila
