It's written in Java, so I'd guess it won't be easily embeddable in
things not written in Java.  So I'd guess there's not that much
overlap: if you're writing in Java and want an embeddable database,
then cloudscape is going to be useful new option; otherwise sqlite
will be one of the databases to consider.

I've seen it mentioned in the context of stellation
<http://www.eclipse.org/stellation/>.  It clearly has value there.
