Tom Anderson challenged you to show how your project differs from JDO,

I didn't actually do that - i observed that it was the same. I wasn't
expecting the OP to disagree!
I wouldn't describe JDO as failed, either. It was a technical success, but
just a commercial failure, IMHO because there's so much inertia around
RDBMSs.
Nonetheless, i stand by my assertion that joafip is providing the same
service as a JDO implementation, which i think is the point you were
making use of here.
Now you're back again, starting an entirely new thread on the exact same
topic, and somehow I suspect you will once again refuse to engage
directly in the challenge of showing why we should pay any attention
whatsoever.
Maybe we should set him up with that guy who's reinvented CORBA, and isn't
interested in discussing the fact either. Between them, they've reinvented
a good chunk of the J2EE stack; we just need someone to reinvent servlets
and we've got the whole shooting match.
