So it seems the jbossxb and jbossxb-builder projects need to be merged, and the DefaultSchemaResolver/SchemaResolverConfig updated to support these mappings. With this there would be no need to sublcass the SchemaResolverDeployer resolver. I can work on that today if we agree to merge these since both projects are dependencies of the metadata project.
