Schemas has been removed from the latest Geronimo distributions.
They are only used at build time to generate xmlbeans classes to
parse the deployment descriptors and are no longer distributed afaik.

CC'ing cxf-dev and apache legal, as it pertains to Geronimo, but I think
it would be good for us (CXF) to hear from legal  The part of the
license that concerns me is this:

No part of this document may be reproduced in any form by any means
without prior written authorization of Sun and its licensors, if any.

Does G have prior written authorization to include it as part of the
source distro? Does Apache as a whole? Can we as an incubating project
redistribute this in our source distribution? If not can we do so
temporarily until we're able to obtain authorization?
