Description

Oozie is currently using OpenJPA 2.2.2, which is from April 2013. Version 2.3.0 is from Nov 2013, but there was a recent 2.4.1 release in Feb 2016 (that's a long gap!). Given that this is a critical dependency, it might be a good idea to take a look at the chnagelog, do some testing, and update the dependency. I'm sure there's lots of bug fixes that would be great to have.
