I need to build a view in my MVC 2 application that allows a user to upload an XML file. The XML files will conform to an XSD. I need to parse the XML and extract data to populate C# objects that will then be sent off to a web service.

My question is...since I know the exact "format" of the XML files, because of the XSD, is there some easier way to "move" the data in the XML files into my business objects?

I read about some Linq-to-XSD project, but it appears to have been abandoned. Linq-to-XML doesn't seen very helpful, since I still have to "walk" through the entire XML document to get all the data.

Surely there is an easier way?
