The zip file doesn't appear to have any logs in it. Just a lot of directories.

> In the Spec I could not find any statement regarding on how a transaction should behave if an object is deleted in a different concurrent transaction.
> Related Sections are Section 5.8 (how different methods should behave for different object states) and Section 12.6.1 (the behavior of refresh() and related methods).
> For example I wonder about the following situations. Suppose I have two optimistic sessions, pm1 and pm2, both access the same object. pm1 deletes the object and commits. Then what happens in pm2 if:
> 1. pm2 deletes the object and tries to commit, should that work? It's
>    wouldn't be a real conflict if both delete it.
> 2. pm2 modifies the object (make dirty) and calls {{refresh()}}. Should I
>    get an {{ObjectNotFound}} exception?
> 3. pm2 deletes the object and calls {{refresh()}}. According to the spec,
>    {{refresh()}} should not change the object's state. But should it
>    still fail with {{ObjectNotFound}}? If refresh should fail, how can I
>    ever recover from such a situation, because I can't undelete the
>    object?
> Is there a common understanding how this should work? 
> IF there an external definition JDO relies on, then I think a reference to an external document might useful.
> If not, should the Spec define concurrent behavior?
