You could see the bookmark example which uses JPA and JSON. You could
easily change it to use JAXB.
I prefer to avoid conversion at various layers, so you could probably
annotate your JPA entity using JAXB. But, it all depends how you want to
expose your model to the users. In my case, I had to add @XmlTransient
for some of the data which should not be exposed to users.
