# OpenJPA 2.0.1

The Apache OpenJPA community is proud to announce the maintenance release
of Apache OpenJPA 2.0.1.  As with the prior 2.0.0 release, this
distribution is based on the final [JSR 317 Java Persistence API, Version 2.0](http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=317)
 specification and passes the JPA 2.0 TCK, while remaining backwards
compatible with the prior 1.2.x releases based on the Java Persistence API
(JPA 1.0) part of Java Community Process JSR-220 (Enterprise JavaBeans
3.0).  For a list of all the new features of JPA 2.0, please checkout the [OpenJPA 2.0.0](openjpa-2.0.0.html)
 release notes.

Additional information on the OpenJPA project may be found at [the project web site](http://openjpa.apache.org)
