Or you could petition Sun to open source the reference implementation of JDO then others can contribute to it & extend it - like they've already done with Serlvets & JSP (Tomcat) and the standard tag library (JSTL). Remember to look out for Castor though I don't think its JDO compatible. http://castor.exolab.org/ Then there's Torque in the Turbine project which is in a similar space, though not JDO. http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/torque/index.html James _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
