The author was hired by MySQL AB, and now works for them.  Connector/J is
the new version of that code.  The code we ship was the last non-GPL version
before MySQL decided to charge non-GPL users for the drivers.  We cannot
ship their new driver without virally infecting JAMES.

At some point soon, I expect that we will bundle Derby with JAMES as our
default database, and won't include any third party JDBC drivers at all.

In the meantime, as an end-user, you have the right to download and install
the GPL driver from MySQL.  You will have to change the driver class in
config.xml to com.mysql.whateveritisthatIdon'trecalloffhand.
