....... Gavin King of Hibernate fame and the TopLink team at Oracle have stated they will support JDO 2.0. And the JDOcentral web site now has over 14,000 members.
I have recently consulted for several companies that have made a decision to make JDO a standard technology to be used throughout their corporation, including a Fortune 100 company. Despite the lack of aggressive marketing by Sun, as we have seen with some other technologies (e.g. EJB), JDO is gaining momentum and adoption. But my sources tell me Sun is starting to see the light too...
JDO 2.0 features will cause a significant increase in the JDO adoption rate. Patrick Linskey of SolarMetric is really sharp and a great speaker, so I encourage folks to attend.
If Hibernate implements JDO, and I think that is the indication, then that will be a huge plus for JDO and for Hibernate.
Ironically, even though the talk today is at the WUG, to date IBM has not shown any signs of implementing JDO itself. I note IBM is not on the expert committee either,,,,
