Yep. My app code looks so much cleaner after I migrated it to the new APIs. And while still raw, the new cdbimport rules. > I think our previous naming regime would have this branch called STABLE-4.0 > if we are ready to now make trunk/head available for new work that will not > land into 4.0. I didn't give much thought to the branch naming in this instance, as I am planning to merge and delete this branch after the release (leaving the tag around of course). So it is a short-lived thing. > If this really is the end of all new features, then perhaps the next release > will be 4.0-beta1? There's more query API work planned. We need to align ProcedureQuery and NamedQuery, and create a fluent thing for non-selecting SQLTemplates. Though these can be done pretty quickly. A bigger project is to bring all EJBQLQuery functionality into ObjectSelect - multi-result selects, aggregate queries, etc. This is more challenging. Whether this stuff should be 4.0 or say 4.1 is debatable. I feel there's lots of benefit in a quick completion of 4.0. There are users who are only allowed to use "GA" tagged dependencies in their work. And by the time we get a "full solution", a few years may pass and it won't be as exciting by then :) So I am +1 on the Beta idea. Andrus
