IMHO, I think Larry and Nathan are both partially right. I believe it's safe to say that discussions on the topic of persistence frameworks in Java are sometimes as intense as political or religious debates ;) Personally, I think a high-level breakdown of the differences between frameworks would be good. Even having a feature matrix that compares against some other frameworks would be helpful for people that are in the process of evaluating different solutions.
Per Nathan's suggestion, I think it would be good to list some pros and cons of different approaches. And, I would be careful how one product is categorized as better than the other. Obviously, what's best is often subjective, so there should ideally be some specific benchmarks (e.g. solution A's response time is faster than solution B w/ X concurrent users).

How about a more general description of the differences and usage. BTW there is nothing wrong with stating reasons why our product is better then others at specific tasks.
