-------------------------------------

Hi Andy,

Could you explain why @JoinTable and @SecondaryTable are needed?  There is no 
equivalent in the xml metadata. I guess they are used to get table 
name/schema/catalog information into the annotations. Could we perhaps have a 
Table element in Join instead? And allow a field target for Table as well as 
class, as with Join?

> It would be desirable for JDO2 to have its own set of annotations. We have

> 1. Split into javax.jdo.annotations.jdo and javax.jdo.annotations.orm
> 2. Move ORM attributes from some of the JDO annotations and have a ORM 
> annotation.
