<h1>EclipseLink 2.4.0</h1>
<h2>Eclipse Indigo simultaneous release</h2>
<p>Target Date - June 2012</p>
<h2>About</h2>
<p>The <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink">EclipseLink</a> project's
goal is to provide a complete persistence framework that is both comprehensive
and universal. It will run in any Java environment and read and write objects
to virtually any type of data source, including relational databases, and XML.
EclipseLink will focus on providing leading edge support, including advanced
feature extensions, for the dominant persistence standards for each target data
source; Java Persistence API (JPA) for relational databases, Java API for XML
Binding (JAXB) for XML, Service Data Objects (SDO), and Database Web services
(DBWS). </p>
<p>For tips on getting started with EclipseLink, please see the following resources:
