I think Cayenne becoming a TLP is a good news piece, especially when you discuss the JPA roadmap. Gives people a feeling of a future proofed architecture.

Yeah, the TLP news are a bit dated... Still one place where this can pose as news - the Apache front page: http://www.apache.org/ Didn't have time to check the site sources and build a patch with Cayenne announcement. Another area where volunteer help would be great. Now the JPA related press release. A good idea, but a bit too early. Essentially until there is something fairly solid to give people to play with (even non-compliant, but having all major pieces in place), we don't want to announce it. I still can't put my hands on the TCK to at least estimate where we are (a bit of a deja vu - last summer all our TCK requests went into some internet black hole). So I suggest to hold off on that.
