> Hibernate XML mapping requires dom4j, which is one of the packages that causes the Java version of "dll hell" - applications requiring conflicting versions of jars with no way to resolve the problem in a given release of an application server or package.
> HIbernate should be converted to use the standard XML APIs included in the JRE 5.0 specification, when Hibernate no longer needs to support JRE 1.4.x.
