Hi, I'm fine with that, too. We should also define a long-term road map.
Regarding the versions, especially when we release more often (which I would really appreciate), we should better communicate the philosophy behind versioning. 1.3.x should never require migration efforts and should be considered drop-in replacements for 1.3.(x-1), as long as bug fixes allow this. Once migration is necessary, we should increase the minor version. So the JPA changeset should go into 1.4 then. The question would be if we need a 1.3.5 or if we can go directly for a 1.4.
