Unfortunately newer versions of cxf will not be easier to install from
scratch.
The main problem is that cxf replaces a lot of the jdk jaxws and jaxb
functionality.
The reason why we do this is that the jdk version either have bugs,
performance or security problems. I am not sure which exactly and if we
could
for example keep more of the standard jdk stuff with newer jdk versions.
I would be very glad if this is possible.
If you develop server applications then you should take a look at Apache
Karaf. There we have a CXF feature that makes it really easy to install cxf.
In the server case it also makes sense to not use the tycho plugin and
instead just use maven bundle plugin and standard maven builds.
For testing pax exam has proven to be very effective. It can also be
used together with karaf.
Here you can find a tutorial for cxf with karaf.

Thanks Christian,
I can try that, to clarify, when you say lower level do you mean earlier or
later than CXF?
This was my first inclination. It seems I always have issues with CXF and
JaxB. Does the latest release of CXF address ( or make easier ) some of
these issues?
