Hello. I've been using OpenJPA for a while, and I'd like to understand what's going on with the bug fixing process.
Over the course of time, I have filed a few bugs. I'm only going to concentrate on ones that we had to fix ourselves: OPENJPA-2733 OPENJPA-2735 OPENJPA-2736 OPENJPA-2749 Explanation of what the problem is, and the attempt to patch is provided for each one of those. There was absolutely no activity from the development team on any of those. There hasn't been any release activity for a while as well. Now I see that 2.4.3 and 3.0.0 have we been released. That's great, but do they address any of the problems we have? It's not that easy to find out, and considering the bug activity, I would expect they aren't. My question is then simply - what do I need to do to be heard? AFAIK I do a good amount of pre-work for determining the test cases, the root causes, and fixes suggestions, for the development team to be able to include this. Obviously, I don't understand OpenJPA code enough to know whether my fixes are correct, but that's why I leave it for the development team to close. Thank you, Pawel.
