I'm not sure I understood the question... Anyway, there is indeed something wrong with the db4o:db4o dependency of the datanucleus-db4o artifact: it is not available in Maven central nor in the DataNucleus repository . I don't understand how users are supposed to use the datanucleus-db4o artifact.
The required file is not in the maven repositories, but it is in the datanucleus zip file (that one with all dependencies). Look into the /deps folder.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
