I have created new releases of mime-dir-j, mime-dir-j-vcard4j, lom-j-api, lom-j-impl, lom-j-xml, vdex-j-api, vdex-j-impl, and vdex-j-xml.
These have all been upgraded to compile without errors or warnings under Java 1.6. The Ant build.xml files have all been dropped in exchange for Maven pom.xml builds. I added jaxb.index files to the -xml packages, which make the examples now run for me out-of-the-box under the JAXB 2 that comes included in Java 1.6.
I have also marked mime-dir-j, lom-j, and vdex-j as no longer being under active development. The above fixes should make the projects easy for others to hack on in modern environments.
The ready availability of XML databases means that the object-relational LOM binding this project was created to facilitate is no longer the ideal solution for new projects, IMO. I would advise simply storing your LOM in XML format in an XML database, utilizing XPath and XQuery for access, coding directly against the DOM, perhaps with the help of some utility classes for creating datatype nodes.
