Axis is not moving to Java 5, but Axis2 has already done that with the 1.5 release. > so in terms of the 'frequent fliers' of XmlSchema > dependencies inside Apache, CXF is it. We are currently in the (painful) process of getting Axis2 1.6 out. Once that is done, we have the opportunity to move to XmlSchema 2.0.
