RE: Problems trying to use annotation support in v2

I don't think so, but there is a difference between having the annotation on 
the type and on the element. Yours is on the element, in particular 
SchemaLocalElement also implements SchemaAnnotated (via SchemaField) and that's 
where you need to get the annotation from. Otherwise, if you had both an 
annotation on the element (like in your example) and on the type (like your 
modified version) how would you get to both of them?

Sorry to reply to myself, but I have an update on the problem.  The
SchemaType seems to contain only annotations that are defined at the
top level of the schema.  In my previous example, placing the
xs:annotation immediately under <category> works, but the occurrence
under <name> is ignored.  Is this a bug in XmlBeans?
