hello! Have anybody looked into using neo4j as a JCR backend? Among many other uses, the Grails framework will be using a JCR-compliant backend in the next version (1.1). There is also a Spring JCR module and some tool support.
The data structure of JCR seems to fit neo4j very well: > The data in a JCR consists of a tree of Nodes with associated > Properties. Data is stored in the Properties, which may hold simple > values such as numbers and strings or binary data of arbitrary length. > Nodes may optionally have one or more types associated with them which > dictate the kinds of properties, number and type of child nodes, and > certain behavioral characteristics of the nodes. Nodes may point to > other nodes via a special reference type property. In this way nodes in > a JCR offer both referential integrity and object oriented concept of > inheritance. Additional node types include the referenceable node type > which allows the user to reference said node through use of a > universally unique identifier. Another popular type is the versionable > type. This makes the repository track a document's history and store > copies of each version of the document.
