Apache Roller 4.0 (rc1): new, improved and powered by OpenJPA

Hi OpenJPA folks,

Thanks to Craig Russell, Mitesh Meswani and others in Roller 4.0 we
completely replaced Hibernate with OpenJPA.

Roller is a great showcase for Apache products and especially OpenJPA.
So if you have a little time to spare, I encourage you to try out the
new RC1 release and  even take a look at the source code to see how we
use JPA.

One of the new features of Roller is the easy-install and that should
make it really easy for you to take it for a spin. Assuming you've got
Tomcat and a JDBC driver all you'll have to do is set a couple of
properties and drop in the Roller WAR.

We'd love any feedback you might have to offer.
