<snip>
Before a real 1.0 release I would really like to see a JDBC based implementation
added, but that doesn't need to be a gating factor for promotion to commons
proper (especially if I don't have time to work on it, although it's becoming
possible that I might :-).
after quite a deal of (fairly) bitter experience, i'd probably advocate that commons should release just after promotion - but this doesn't have to be a conclusive 1.0 release. my reasoning is that there is a significant minority of commercial users who do not require forwards compatibility but who do require a full - rather than beta or alpha release - before they can use it.
so, i'd like to see a 0.x release upon promotion followed by a pause for consideration whilst a full 1.0 release (with promises of compatibility) is created.
