[Opensource] CVS Status and other what not :)

[Michael Rimov]

First off, regarding my post about RecordSet and DBConnection... nevermind 
for now :)

Thinking about the JDBC 1.0 vs 1.2 interface history, we could easily make 
it so that only JDBC 1.0 compliant drivers would no longer compile with 
Expresso.  However, I WOULD like to hear from anyone that is still using a 
JDBC 1.0 compliant only driver.  An example of this is InterClient 1.61

As for CVS, I have a batch of checkins to do, HOWEVER, the WEB-INF/lib 
directory in CVS currently has some sort of bad lock or something on it, so 
I can't check in the new required libraries. (Such as the Oswego 
concurrent.jar).  I'm thinking of having the WEB-INF/lib directory removed 
all together and simply have a "Developer Library Bundle" available in the 
download section that contains all the currently required jarfiles for 
Expresso.  Would seriously save on CVS update times :).

But either way, I'm going to wait until Sandra gets back before I proceed 
with either of these plans.

Good stuff is happening including:
-Support for Prepared Statements

-BLOB/CLOB support

-Better Concurrency support thanks to the Oswego synchronization 
structures.  I've tested Cache now with up to 200 simultaneous threads and 
not a hitch now. [And it's much faster too ;) ]

I'll be looking to roll up an ea-4 release soon after the SapDB Integration 
stuff is complete.
