Yeah, sort of saw this coming... I am using OSCache actively on a number =
of projects.=20

OSCache provides one possible implementation of advanced caching =
facilities for Cayenne. We can easily roll out a new one (even prior to =
3.1 and DI this piece was pluggable), EHCache or something like that. =
And of course OSCache won't suddenly stop working. After all it is =
available in source and binary forms in public Maven repos:

http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/opensymphony/oscache/
and also http://java.net/downloads/oscache/

We can put it on Gihub ourselves and keep maintaining it there for =
Cayenne needs for as long as it takes.

Anyways, thanks for the update. The worst impact it will have on us now =
is from a user perception angle. So we should probably start writing an =
EHCache provider...
