I guess I am somewhat confused about XA...

In a previous mail, you stated:

I've not been very deeply involved in the backend side of slide (stores 
& transactions) yet, but I was under the impression that while slide 
transactions could span multiple methods of multiple stores, they would 
never span multiple threads. For instance the loading of the namespace 
base data at bootstrap should be in one thread (e.g. the servlet.init() 
thread), and all transactions through the WebDAV access layer should 
happen in the thread of the particular HTTP request/response cycle.

If this assumption is correct, then using a simple datasource or
connection pool should suffice, as long as only one instance of Slide is
accessing it at any one time.

But you seem to imply that my assumption is incorrect...

Maybe you (or someone else) can enlighten me :o)
