I'm to blame for Beck.  Sorry I haven't reviewed xmlio yet.  From your
description it sounds like Beck and xmlio have rather different aims.
But they're close enough relatives that we might benefit from
cross-pollination.  I'd be happy to compare notes, if you like.

By the way, can you recommend any tools for mapping between XML and Java
(in both directions)?  I was driven to create Beck because I couldn't find
anything adequate.  But I'd be delighted to use something off the shelf, if
it did what I need.
