Hi,
for all the guys are using OrientDB with Blueprints/Gremlin/Rexster you should to know that starting from v2.5.0 (released yesterday) OrientDB Blueprints implementation is not hosted on TinkerPop Blueprints project anymore.
Blueprints is the default Java Graph API for OrientDB, so we preferred to merge it in OrientDB project avoiding cross dependency problems.
So if you are using OrientDB 1.7+ you don't need to include Blueprints anymore because it's provided in bundle with OrientDB distribution.
We're sure this will improve BP adoption for OrientDB users and will reduce pains on development.
Have fun with graphs,
