xmlbeans

The XML Schema 1.1 version of very good interesting features that are invaluable for my use cases. However, it seems to be relatively new. So I would like to get your feed back on the below questions before I finalize my decision. Which version of JAXB supports 1.1? Which version of XmlBeans supports 1.1? Does SOAP/WSDL support the 1.1?
