I keep seeing posts like the one above that say that using Hypersonic for JMS JDBC 
persistence is not recommended.  While I probably wouldn't argue with that point, I do 
not understand then why it is still, after all these years, included as a default in 
JBoss then.  

Certainly there are other embeddable databases (like McKoi) that could be bundled as 
default in place of Hypersonic and would perhaps provide the features and robustness 
to be recommended for use especially for new users.

I know the natural reaction to posts like this are to say "you can use whatever 
database you want" and yes that would be true, and I do.  However, it seems that if 
you include a product in the default setup, you are indirectly, or perhaps even 
directly sanctioning its use. 

The bottom line is that if is is not recommended to use, then it should not be the 
default database in JBoss.  Or at the very minimum, have a bullet point in the FAQ of 
this forum that states that Hypersonic should not be used and maybe even some points 
as to why that is the case.
