Patrick Linskey commented on OPENJPA-404:
-----------------------------------------
Since the re-introduced APIs are used by 0% of 1.0.x users, I'd say we should
not bother the 1.0.x branch with the change. My call is generally to keep
changes to maintenance branches to an absolute minimum (i.e., known bugfixes
only).

> When I changed the OpenJPA APIs before the 1.0 release, I made a number of
> incompatible changes. At the time, we deemed that this was fine since 1.0 was
> the first OpenJPA release. However, it turns out that this runs up against
> BEA policy, since BEA shipped a product using a build from around 0.9.7. So,
> we'd like to do some work to address this where possible.
