OpenJPA 2.1 Roadmap
We'll try to maintain this page with delivered and planned features for the
OpenJPA 2.1.0 release, so check back often.

- Inclusion of commons-dbcp in openjpa-all.jar and the binary distribution
- Ability to configure or disable commons-dbcp
- Built-in Bean Validation Provider
- Inclusion of Apache Bean Validation Provider in openjpa-all.jar and the
binary distribution
- Additional Database Support

Migration Issues
- This release will officially drop support for Java SE 5. Anyone
requiring Java SE 5 support will have to continue using OpenJPA 2.0.x,
which is fully JPA 2.0 compliant.
Release Plan
A 2.1.x branch
is available in SVN and 2.1.0 release preparations are underway. The
OpenJPA team is planning to deliver a 2.1.0 release in late January, 2011.
