I tend to agree with Mark that issues related to JDBC and Servlets should be
addressed here. However, I think most of the questions here are generic JDBC
questions "how do I get a count...", etc., not having any Servlet
relationships.
As a side, I wonder how many of you are writing Servlets that generate the
HTML and interfacing straight to the database via JDBC? We choose to go with
a multi-tiered approach, where the middle tier performs the database
interactions and returns a model of data for the servlet to generate the
HTML with.

Although I technically agree that pure JDBC/Sql questions shouldn't be
addressed in here, they do form a large part of what servlet programming
is about. I personally started writing applets with JDBC and moved to
servlets with JDBC and found there was a change to my methodology
needed and some of the points raised in here helped me a lot.
For pure JDBC questions, is there another mailing list that could
address these? If there is, I think it would be better to post
a polite "please refer to the mailing list jdbc-interest@..."
