[tdwg-tag] JAXB and Simple DwC woes

[Bob Morris]

Under eclipse Kepler Java EE edition, I am using  JAXB to generate
unmarshalling classes from a local copy of the simple dwc schema
tdwg_dwc_simple.xsd

That schema and various imports seem to assume that their dependencies
are on the local file system, and I ended up checking out the entirety
of trunk/2011-10-26/xsd/, which was simpler than chasing down the
dependencies one at a time, especially since I am not sure what other
aspects of dwc I might later need.

Should I feel aggrieved that the dwc schemas assume that their
dependencies are in local files?

Had they not been, would recent versions of JAXB have come to my
rescue automagically?

Was there something simpler to do?

Thanks
Bob
