Hi all,

working with JPA I've stumbled across quite a few ([0], [1]) issues in implementations that are seem to be violations of the spec which could/should be discovered by the TCK.

So what is the general way to get access to the TCK and how does one propose improvements? The JSR-317 website [2] states in section 2.16 that there will be a TCK made available but I had a hard time finding except other voices being disappointed about not getting access to it [3].

Cheers,
Ollie
