Right. :) Mea culpa.

NP, feel free to ping me directly. I will eventually have resources in
July to solve the problem permanently.

Please see this SO question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2432859/difference-of-maven-jaxb-plugins
I can be certainly baised as an author but from my point of view my
maven-jaxb2-plugin has the most extensive feature set. It is far more
that just a wrapper for XJC, it has a number of own unique features
starting from schema resolution inside JARs up to native support for
separate schema compilation.
