With the new id I think it is important that Derby Client 10.1 and other clients which currently work with Derby continue to work. If you make this change could you just leave the server sending CSS to the Derby 10.1 client, JCC and ODBC? When new versions of JCC and ODBC recognize the new product id, someone from IBM can change network server to start sending DRB to these clients. In general I think we have to be careful about upgrade scenarios because right now we have no upgrade tests in derbyAll and we have no backward/forward client compatibility testing. I'll add Jira entries for these test items. Please tread lightly. I think it is really important that users already using Derby see a seamless upgrade and that client maintain backward/forward compatibility with server. Thanks Kathey
