Hi Wonseok,
Great question and this is something Marina and i discussed yesterday.
The issue is that the jars in the maven repository are from june 2006.
One of the issues is that signatures had some errors which have since
been addressed. Where the 1.0b version came from is this is the
version of the JPA TCK which has recorded the corrected signatures per
the specification.
For Toplink Essentials, the versioning aligns with the Glassfish build
that the jar originated from.
If you(or anyone else) has a better suggestion WRT versioning, let us know.
We just need to release a new set of jars to the maven repository ASAP.
Regards
Lance
