[jboss-dev] JAXB Generated Classes with target 2.0

[Jason T. Greene]

Anil is refering to the JAXB API version, not the schema version. JAXB 
is backwards compatible with older versions, it just means that it wont 
generate references to classes in newer versions of JAXB.

As to compatibility on schema updates, if you change the schema in a 
backwards compatible way its not a problem.
