I guess your team should consider that it has a very unique advantage
with Cayenne - a committer who can fix things if they are broken. They
won't have that with Hibernate ;-)
Anyways, I guess we won't be able to fix that DataDomain snapshot
cache contention issue in 3.0, but hopefully we will in 3.1

I am all for it. If 3.1 is just DI/configuration rework (and anything
else squeezed in while this rework is being done), I am personally
totally fine with it.
