I'm happy to announce that Apache JDO http://db.apache.org/jdo, which has been in incubation for the past 7 months, has graduated from the Apache Incubator and is now an ongoing sub-project of the Database (DB) Top Level Project at Apache. http://db.apache.org It joins Apache Derby, DdlUtils, ObjectRelationalBridge, and Torque in the DB project. The Incubator http://incubator.apache.org determined that Apache JDO had met the requirements of graduation from the incubator. This includes the following: The code must be donated to the Apache Foundation, and include a suitable license. Apache JDO uses the Apache License Version 2.0. The project must be worthy and healthy, and be organized according to the "Apache Way". This means, among other things, that communications in the project are conducted in the open, decisions are made by consensus in the open, and the project is run as a meritocracy, in which responsibility is granted to individuals according to their ability to contribute to the project. The project must not be dependent on a single contributor, and there are at least three independent committers. The DB Project Management Committee has voted to accept Apache JDO as a sub-project, and the project is now included as part of the DB project. The immediate goals of the Apache JDO project are to complete the JDO 2.0 API and Technology Compatibility Kit in preparation for release of Java Specification Request 243 under the auspices of the Java Community Process. The JDO 2.0 Reference Implementation is being developed in another open source project, JPOX http://jpox.org, under the terms of the Apache License 2.0. Medium range goals of the Apache JDO project include work to integrate Apache JDO into other open source projects inside and outside Apache.
