[hibernate-dev] ORM 5 Final - Release date and what's needed for OGM

[Gunnar Morling]

Steve, all,

What's the planned for release date for ORM 5 Final?

For OGM, we'd need at least one post-CR2 fix, HHH-9906 (apply auto-quoting
setting correctly, [1]). That's already on master and I think it's small
enough to fall under a slightly relaxed "Final = Retagged last CR" policy.

In addition, a fix for HHH-9923 (Avoid cast to MetadataBuildingOptionsImpl
in AnnotationMetadataSourceProcessorImpl#prepare(), [2]) would be great.
It's no blocker for OGM atm. but it'll allow us to actually plug in custom
MetadataBuilders down the road.

Finally there is the potential issue around element collection column
naming I brought up recently [3]; I think I've found a good enough
work-around on the OGM side, but I feel this may better be fixed in ORM. As
is, no blocker from my POV, but an answer on this subject would be nice :)

Thanks,

--Gunnar
