Excellent!

Here's the change where we removed the JPA 2.0 support when the 3.1.x branch 
was created.  We'd basically need to do this in reverse:

  http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=943000

The other thing I can think of is that we'd want to use the javaee-api v6 
module from trunk and remove the ejb31-experimental jar.

I created a branch for you here:  

  https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openejb/branches/openejb-3.2.x

The versions are all 3.1.5-SNAPSHOT still, so we'll have to update that as 
well.  Probably also have to update the maven targets to 1.6 instead of 1.5.

I think this will make a lot of people very happy!


So on the version numbers, is everyone ok with bumping trunk to a 4.0 and 
calling this new branch 3.2?  If there are other opinions, now would be a good 
time to speak up!
