Who uses JDOEntityManagerFactory ? DataNucleus never has, and consequently its users haven't. Any other implementations claiming compliance and using it?; I don't see any. Besides which, if going to JDO 4.0 then should also include https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-687 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-652 since they certainly will change methods/classes that users *do* use. Due to resource constraints I don't see those being squeezed into the next release. Consequently my vote is keep as JDO3.1 -- Andy DataNucleus (http://www.datanucleus.org)
