Actually, this "writing" that we should support in 0.4 was referring
to the parts of the JCR implementation that change the graph. Right
now, the JCR implementation only has implementations for the "read"
methods. Architecturally, the JCR implementation uses our new Graph
API introduced in 0.3. The idea is that the JCR implementation works
with everything as graph content managed by a connector. Even the
NodeTypeManager would be implemented on top of the Graph API. Events
may also be addressed in 0.4, but versioning, search and query would
likely be handled in 0.5. (Actually, if that's true, then 0.5 might
actually be 1.0).
ok, about events query and so on. I've understood they
wouldn't go in 0.4
Now, you asked about plans for storing graph content in a relational
DB or other systems (e.g., Hadoop). Just to be clear, the Graph API
already supports reading and writing, and we'll be adding events in
0.4. The only 0.3 connector that supports persisting content is the
JBoss Cache connector (relying upon JBoss Cache's ability to persist
the cache content in a relational database or file system). But I'm
already working on a new connector that stores graphs in a relational
database using JPA (using Hibernate for the implementation).
Hopefully that will be available soon.
Yep I know about Graph API. I just skipped
some step in my
question...I've been tired, sorry.
Yes, I agree. The question is if multiple people are working on the
JCR implementation, do they collaborate on one feature at a time, or
do they each work on their own part of the JCR implementation? I
don't have a preference, but would like those wanting to work on the
JCR implementation to decide.
Depends on how much time each one can put in this
implementation.
From my side I think I can promise more or less a part time
collaboration (let me say 4 hours a day). Maybe some one of my men can
lend a hand too, but I'm not sure at the moment, it depends on how are
project will go.

Wonderful! Can't wait to see it.
Ok, on the wire ;)
