Isis currently requires annotations to be on the getter, not on the field;
see for example [1]. Are those annotations you've listed on the field ?
If so, that'll be the issue.
Also, the (Isis) @Optional annotation is not required if you have the (JDO)
annotation @javax.jdo.annotations.Column(allowsNull = "true").
Let me know if that fixes things or not.
