Fernanda and I have started looking at this feature. If anybody is interested on working on it with us, we'd welcome any help :) At the outset, we would appreciate to hear of any obstacles (other than locators) people may know about. Apart from the client/server aspect, what aspect would likely be more challenging in embedded Derby? Would adding insert to forward-only result sets be a useful step in the right direction? In contrast to read-only scrollable result sets, updatable result sets must be sensitive (changes by other transactions are seen), so the current solution for scrollability may not be what we need (?).
