I think we should just use Digester directly. Betwixt looks interesting but I don't see why we need it. I wrote some digester code the handle mbean description files in about 20 minutes (without knowing anything about Digester).

with a minor change. If we're gonna be hand-coding POJOs ourselves then there's less reason to use XMLBeans - so I suggest we use something like betwixt rather than XMLBeans to do the parsing / converting to XML. Thats probably gonna be easier to use and have a smaller dependencies in terms of jars. Then we just need to follow some simple naming conventions in the POJOs to get the XML marshalling for free. e.g.

public class WebApp {

        public void addServlet() {
                ...
        }

        public List getServlets() {
                ...
        }

}

public class Servlet {
        public String getName() {..}
        public void setName(String name) {...}
}
