I'm going off the Javadoc here:

http://jackrabbit.apache.org/api/1.5/org/apache/jackrabbit/core/journal/DatabaseJournal.RevisionTableJanitor.html

Specifically: "Class for maintaining the revision table. This is only
useful if all JR information except the search index is in the
database (i.e., node types etc). In that case, revision data can
safely be thrown away from the JOURNAL table."

I interpret this to mean that the node types need to be in the
database; is that right?

I thought that, irrespective of the persistance manager, the
repository still needs a FileSystem for storing namespaces and node
type definitions, no?
