  <group name="Using Persistence Broker">
    <note>
      API which serves as the OJB persistence kernel. The OTM-, ODMG- and JDO-implementations are built on top 
      of this kernel. This API can also be used directly by applications that don't need full fledged object
      level transactions.

    <note>
      WARNING: To use JDO demo you have to download jdo.jar from Sun's website!
    </note>
    <note>
      The Java Data Objects (JDO) API is a standard interface-based Java model
      abstraction of persistence, developed as Java Specification Request 12.
      Application programmers use JDO to directly store their Java domain model
      instances into the persistent store (database). Uses Java Data Object Query Language (JDOQL).

    <note>
      Object Data Management Group (ODMG) 3 standard for binding databases.
      Uses Object Query Language (OQL). ODMG has been superceded by JDO.

    <note>
      OJB block allows the use of the Apache OJB project into Cocoon.
      OJB block is still alpha software and under active development.
      Your feedback is very much welcome on the Cocoon mailing lists.
