I'm not sure ODE has to do anything with CXF ...It's a WS-BPEL impl. What it
does is kind of orthogonal to what CXF is about, isn't it ? CXF can help one to
write a service among other things but how to implement the service is
orthogonal, BPEL-based service implementation is just one possible option really
and it seems well above CXF or Axis2.

P.S. Sorry, had to remove your PS as the spam filter was rejecting my reply.

My advice: Pick your ESB wisely (first).

The important comparison checklist to look at would be the spec-off between
WSO2, ServiceMix and (maybe) Mule.

WSO2 uses Axis2, Synapse and Ode.

SerivceMix uses CXF. (What the equivalent for Ode for CXF?)

Mule ??.

There is some discussion of this currently at
