John, If you'd be willing to help us with some issues/questions I have, I don't see a reason to not support Pointbase. Can you please file a feature request at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR, and I'll take care of it. Just trying to make sure the basics: there's a JDBC driver for Pointbase, and Pointbase does have support for most common JDBC/SQL features ?
