There are implementations using Apache modules:

I would be interested to know how many registrars send invalid
EPP. Most EPP servers I've seen, like OpenReg, do not implement a real
validation and sometimes have big XML errors (like the ".eu" EPP
server where the namespace prefixes were hardwired).

I do not like Java but other people may certainly be interested.
