Seems close to the Sept/Oct timeframe proposed for the 10.2 release with JDBC 4.0.
How confident are we of that proposal? What I heard, a month ago, seemed like it could be paraphrased as: "JDK 1.6 and JDBC 4.0 have slipped, and we aren't sure really when they will be done, but it won't be before this fall, so we won't be ready to release the JDBC 4.0 support until at least then." The message I am remembering was: http://www.nabble.com/pushing-back-release-date-for-jdbc4-capable-Derby-p3637293.html https://mustang.dev.java.net/ simply says: "Mustang is targeted for final release in fall 2006." In my experience, that could mean any time from early September through late December. If the JDK 1.6 and JDBC 4.0 schedules should slip further, for example into 2007, it would be a shame to have our hands tied and be unable to ship any sort of a 10.2 release until then. thanks, bryan
