Core Data Question

Hello all.

Been away from the cocoa development scene for a while, as it seems the bulk of my work the last year or so has been Java and Database stuff. I'm excited by the resurrection and makeover of EOF/Cocoa into "Core Data" (which is what pulled me back here, and have been reading up on it and plan to dive into it shortly.

I've searched the list archives and the web and didn't see this answered (but I imagine it must have been asked!) - but does anyone know what the long term plan for Core Data is? It looks to me like dropping RDBMS support was intentional, since Apple admits that EOF/ WO and Core Data share the same heritage.

Don't get me wrong - just as is, Core Data is manna from heaven. But, with support for databases, or even an open architecture that would allow us to create our own persistence adaptors (without diving into headers and reverse engineering stuff), it would be even more so, and that would open up a lot of opportunities in corporate/scientific computing.

If anyone has any shareable knowledge about where this is going, and if we can expect to see Core Data going to a database or, heck, even opinions, I'd love to know it.

Thanks!
Jeff
