You can always just apply a XSL to the JAX-B object to transform it into the feed format, I did this a while back, to transform Atom into RSS, see the last code sample:
http://kingsfleet.blogspot.com/2008/12/bugfeed-with-jersey-aka-my-first-jax-rs.html
I have since found out that you can skip a few steps and use a JAXBSource as the input to the transformer which makes the code a little bit tidier. I wonder if there is a better way to do the final output without creating a DOM model in memory.
To be honest I looked at using a Atom framework at the time; but it was just as easy to generate the JAX-B nodes from the Atom XML Schema and work from there,
Hope this is of some help,
Gerard
