You should have a collection of MyThingConverter in your
MyThingsConverter class.
public class MyThingsConverter {
private Collection<MyThing> entities; ---> private
Collection<MyThingConverter> entities;
I am assuming that you have getter and setter methods for these
properties in MyThingsConverter class.
If your getter is returning Collection<MyThing>, Jaxb wouldn't care
about XmlRootElement annotation in MyThingConverter.
You should either return a collection of MyThingConverter or you
should also add XmlRootElement annotation to you your
JPA entity.
