Hi list,

I am a long-time user of XMLBeans, most of the time as part of the 
BPELUnit project. There is no replacement to XMLBeans because in 
contrast to JAXB if preserves namespace declarations so you e.g. read 
and write XML document that contain XPath expressions (e.g. BPEL, 
BPMN2, ...).


Although I know XMLBeans only from the user perspective, I would 
contribute to it, which includes learning more of its internals, apply 
the outstanding patches, test them and so on.


As far as I understand the Apache rules a project needs to have a 
working PMC. This means at least 3 people (for substitution 4 or 5 
would be better) which vote on releases. I also would join a new PMC 
if 3 other would be willing to join me and at least build regular 
maintainance releases to keep this project alive and reboot its PMC.


I know that many other projects use XMLBeans, e.g. Apache Camel, 
Apache CXX Apache ODE, ... and many non-Apache projects, too. So I 
hope that we can find enough interested people to keep this project 
alive.


If you are one of them, please reply to this list. If we are enough 
people, I would try to talk to the Apache Foundation.


Regards,
Daniel

could support the project.


The Apache Community Development project has quite a bit of information on 
that: http://community.apache.org/


If you look online, you'll find quite a few "The Apache Way" talks as 
slides or videos, which will explain a lot of that, if you prefer to learn 
from talks
