Thanks Dennis for your info. Your article is probably one of the most detailed and comprehensive analyses on Java/XML binding I've seen so far. I feel that your classification of binding frameworks into mapping-based and code-generation based is very appropriate, in terms of helping developers to choose the right binding tools for specific applications. I'm looking forward to seeing the 3rd part of the article.
