David Van Couvering commented on DERBY-310:
-------------------------------------------

Sorry I didn't respond sooner..

JACK SAID

In regards to a separate section, this document has been placed as a subsection 
to a larger section called 
"Differences between running Derby in embedded mode and using the network 
server." There are other 
subsections to that main section that talk about other differences that dont 
have to do with updatable result sets. So I'm not sure what you mean by it 
should have its own section. Take a look at that area of the Server Admin Guide 
as it exists now:
http://incubator.apache.org/derby/docs/adminguide/cadminapps.html

MY RESPONSE:

OK, I didn't know that

JACK SAID

- Of the other items linked to this issue, both were unsettled. I wanted to at 
least get the differences about updatable result sets into the docs.

MY RESPONSE

OK, I thought this was *the* place where differences were documented

JACK SAID

- I agree that we should say something about not every difference has been 
identified and that there could be more. Perhaps I should add that to the 
"Differences between running Derby in embedded mode and using the network 
server" page instead of this updatable result sets differences page, since it 
should be a broader statement than this one subsection. I'll make a new patch. 
Thanks!

MY RESPONSE

Great, sounds good

JACK SAID

- If Kathy has input on XA differences, I'd be happy to doc those too. Again, 
if it comes down to a timing issue in terms of whether we get some or none of 
these documented in 10.1, I think it would be better to at least have added 
what we have than nothing at all.

MY RESPONSE

ok

JACK SAID

- I think the formatting issues have to do with the fact that we don't have a 
css file to format our output to look nicer. Perhaps we can open a JIRA issue 
as an improvement and someone could write one or find one we can use. Such 
formatting issues as making the titles of tables bold could easily be 
accomplished with a good css file. I'd be happy to look into whether the DITA 
toolkit has some sort of option that we can specify to put css specifications 
directly into the files during transform. I honestly haven't worked too much 
with them to know the details, but I'm sure that is how its done. I'm not 
optimistic that we could have something together before 10.1 though.

MY RESPONSE

Hm.  I am uncomfortable going out with the release when the HTML is so clunky.  
I don't know how hard it is to set up a css file, but it seems like if we're 
trying to get people interested in using Derby, having docs that look funky 
does not send out a good message to interested but hesitant new users.

JACK SAID
- I'll fix the header as you suggested with my new patch.

MY RESPONSE

ok, great
I'll hold off on the patch for awhile to see if anyone has any other comments, 
suggestions, or requests due to some of the issues David has raised. Thanks 
again for the feedback!
