We tried fostering an "industry schema" section[1] in the JAXB project, but
it never got beyond UBL. Please consider putting together "schema packs" that
we can host on-line. The idea is to provide enough content to help developers
get started with these popular schema. The packs could contain the actual
schema files (if possible), binding customizations, a simple ant file (that
runs xjc, javac, and javadoc), a readme file, a sample app, etc. I'm sure
there are people on the list that have expertise using all of the schema that
Kirill listed in his message - it would be great if we could get them to start
donating some of that knowledge to the site.

Thanks,
