OK.
The point that this raises is that my understanding of the "split" JDO-ORM was 
to separate the ORM part out (by ORM I mean the part that can be specified in 
the ORM metadata file) since it best practice to restrict schema-info to 
MetaData (and not have it in annotations). So we would then have 2 sets of 
annotations ... some as JDO and some as ORM. I didn't understand this as 
separating out purely RDBMS-specific concepts that cant be used elsewhere. If 
we go down that route, what do XML datastores use ? Or LDAP ?

e.g specifying an index name, is specifying something specific to the 
datastore in use (which may not be usable in other datastores).



Comments ?
