I was planning on doing this for sure, but I must get it running first with the bare minimum. The ojb/woody sample suffers from over-sampling. Different technologies are merged into one sample block which is very confusing if you dont' have a clue yet on how to use it. More over the OJB/JDO technology requirs you to do things in three different places. Not easy at all.
