Hi Kermie, i am very interested what you would add to squirrel with JDO in mind. I use Castors JDO implementation in a project now but we are planning to move to ObjectBridge (now part of Apache jakarta group) because the developement is much more alive then with castor. And they will try to follow sun's reference and give you much more freedom how to query (i think they also do stuff like Query By Example) But what would you build (as a plugin) for squirrel? A tool that would generated classes and mapping output from tables and tables (create table scripts) and mapping files from a Object Model? This would be great.. But for what implementation? johan > Am interested in helping take squirrel to the next stage...
