Just noticed that you're not on the committers list.  If you fill out the contributors form on 

	https://www.jboss.org/contribute

and send me your jboss.org username I'll add you as a committer.

Cheers

It may look a little confusing as a result, but have a look at the AbstractMarshaller which should help simplify things.  Further, look at the VersionAwareMarshaller, which is the entry point into the marshalling system.
