OK, that's good to know. It looks like I and others have been misled
that we had to pull these jars down to run tests. Note Bryan's recent
efforts to get these jars -- I think he was just following the
instructions in BUILDING.txt.
I can log a JIRA to fix the wording in testing/README.htm to make it
clear that the DB2 driver is optional (and thus the derbynet tests are
optional).

I hope I'm not stepping on a landmine here, but does anyone else who
thinks it would be a good thing to remove the need for the DB2 JDBC
driver for our builds and tests? It's fine if it's an optional part,
like support for JDK 1.6, but it doesn't seem right that it's required
now that we have our own JDBC driver...
Dumb question, in what way is it required?
I thought it was alredy optional.
As far as I know it is not needed for building.
As far as I know the derbynet tests will be skipped if it is not in the
class path.
I thought that this had been the case since Derby was open sourced.
