Re: roller + jdo/jpox
1. "atrocious performance problems".
Not really quite sure what you're referring to there. You can always consult the independent benchmark PolePosition (available in the JPOX docs) that clearly shows JPOX **outperforming** Hibernate on virtually all tests. JPOX completes the test suite in a *sixth* of the time that Hibernate needs. I'm sorry if that's considered atrocious to you. Just wait til we get the time to really optimise its performance.
2. "JDO is dead". Heard it all before. There are many people wanting JDO since it gives things that "Java Persistence 1.0" doesnt. Datastore agnostic. Provides more complete O/R mapping.
3. Yes, JPOX does have "Java Persistence 1.0" on the roadmap. That means what it says it means. The plan is to provide that interface for people who want to use it. JDO2 is a superset of Java Persistence 1.0 after all.
4. You've never been seen or heard from on the JPOX forum so perhaps if you have issues about a piece of software you could actually consult the people who support its use rather than coming out with this rather uneducated viewpoint in a mailing list that the developers of that software are hardly likely to see unless they just happen to come across it in a web trawl.
