> With Sun's new JDO standard, hand-coding SQL is not

> SQL and communicates with the database.

> And now, just weeks after the Proposed Final Draft of the JDO
> specification has been submitted (May 10, 2001), the first JDO
> implementation to support the standard is available: Kodo

> This particular implementation is not free software, but that does not
