Great to see you working on this, Kristian. Regarding the CLA, we went through this a while ago, and yes, it is sufficient.

'derby-646-1a-raw-compiles.diff' is a minor fix of the original patch 
'svn.diff'. The patch now applies to trunk and compiles. No other 
clean-ups/changes have been done, but I had to rewrite a little bit to solve 
circular compile dependencies.

As far as I can tell, the basic functionality is working. I was able to run with the 
memory storage backend, which creates a database directory with lock files and a tmp 
directory. Tried running a few tests with a "hacked" JDBCClient implementation, 
and the tests passed. Had some problems with warnings regarding dual boot (missing 
shutdown/clean-up?).

I think a little more clean-up should be done first (implement a missing method 
- getURL, remove commented out code, add some more comments), and then the 
patch can be reviewed for functional/design improvements.
We might want some tests written specifically for the memory backend, and then 
run the existing tests with the memory backend as well.

Stephen Fitch is listed at http://people.apache.org/~jim/committers.html under 
"Unlisted CLAs". Is this enough to allow us to safely bring this code into the 
repository?
