Hi Bryan, I went through all the links and then I looked at at the bugs that you suggested. And I went through Derby-6773, looked at the description and links on the page, it seems to be a bug that I can solve but what I am not sure is how to start working on it. Could you please give me a quick idea on how the bug/ improvement (Derby- 6773) can be reproduced, and how to know what part of the Derby code needs to be fixed.
Thank you very much :) Regards, Abhinav.
