Just a heads-up and a request for the community's patience:
Normally, the Java DB team produces a re-spin of every Derby release. The
Java DB team has discussed the impending 10.5.2.0 announcement and we have
decided that there is too much risk for us in re-spinning this release. We
believe that customers affected by DERBY-3926 have largely figured out how
to work around that problem because the bug has been in Derby since 10.1. In
contrast, the implications of DERBY-4331 are not understood.
However, we have customers who want other fixes which are in the 10.5
branch. We would like to produce a Java DB 10.5.2.1 distribution which would
be the state of the 10.5 branch without DERBY-3926. What we propose to do is
the following:
1) Back out DERBY-3926 on the 10.5 branch.
2) Produce a distribution from the branch at that point.
3) Put DERBY-3926 back into the 10.5 branch.
We would like to warn the community that we are going to do this and ask for
your patience while we produce this distribution.
Thanks,

I wonder - will you be bumping the version number? I think the
community decided it was ok to do so for any committer feeling the
need...

Hi Myrna,
Yes, I was planning to.
