1. JDOHelper.isLoaded proposal (JDO-483)

The following solution was suggested: User can check
javax.jdo.option.BinaryCompatibility before calling the boolean method
isLoaded(Instance, fieldName). The method will throw
JDOUnsupportedOperationException only if the object is detached, the
value of field is null, 0, or false, and the implementation does not
support binary compatibility..  Add method to StateInterrogation
interface boolean isLoaded(Instance, fieldName). TBD: Add
jdoIsLoaded(fieldName) to PersistenceCapable?

2. Eric asked whether JOD2 transaction types will mirror JPA;
specifically, do we add joinTransaction() to PersistenceManager?
Requires getting a reference to the transaction manager. If a user mixes
JDO and JPA transaction apis, throw JDOUserException.  Need to consider
a number of scenarios.  AI: Eric wll post a number of scenarios for
discussion.

3. Michael provided an update on the XML story. The fix for API20 test
checked in.  It works now except when run from the top level directory.
AI: Michael will propose changes for naming and schema to experts.

Action Items from weeks past:

[Mar 30 2007] AI Michael: Change xml test in api20 (done)

[Mar 9 2007] AI Craig: Update the spec to require that the key of the
listener is the class name of the listener, for consistency with
proposed xml..

[Mar 2 2007] AI Craig: update the JDOHelper class to include a string
constant "META-INF/jdo.xml" and a new method
getPersistenceManagerFactory taking no arguments.

[Aug 11 2006] AI Craig propose some semantics for behavior if user tries
to add to a list where the ordering element is incorrect.

[Jul 14 2006] AI: Erik document 220 annotations that don't have a
corresponding JDO concept.

[Jun 23 2006]  AI  Martin look at what Hibernate and TopLink support for
Enum types. In progress.

[Apr 14 2006] AI Craig: update the roadmap for JDO. In progress.
