I've just added a zip package to the files download section at SourceForge
project site, containing the latest alpha version corresponding to CVS
hsqldb_1_7_2_ALPHA_h tag.

This package features some bug fixes and a revision of TEXT TABLE support.

The TEXT table support was originally written to fetch a text table by
selecting from it. As we changed the implementation to the one released in
1.7.0 we did not improve some of the underlying aspects due to lack of time.
Consequently PRIMARY KEY constraints were not possible.

The internal implementation has now changed to allow a PRIMARY KEY. Text
tables can be used the same way as other types of table. Text table indexes
are now built at startup time or when a SET TABLE  name SOURCE command is
issued. As a result startup takes more time, but queries are faster.

I would invite those of you who had previously encountered problems with
Text tables to try the new alpha package and tell us if there are any
issues.
