[cas-dev] CAS-687 -Registered Services attributes

[Scott Battaglia]

Hey everyone,

Due to an issue where if you store more than a few items as attributes in
the Services Management tool we've had to make some changes to the storage
of that data.  Originally we were only using JPA annotations however JPA 1
has some limitations about storing collections of Strings (i.e. it can't).
JPA2 solves that but its not out yet.  Hibernate (which we're using as our
JPA provider) can do it though.  So unfortunately we're testing in HEAD with
using the Hibernate specific annotation which means we've lost the ability
to swap providers but we do potentially gain a better way of storing the
attributes.

If anyone can check out HEAD who has been having trouble with Services
Management and attributes, please do so and let me know.  I want to try this
out before we cut another RC.

Thanks
-Scott
