i think because they have built-in functions , simple funtions like

of course what i mentioned is a very small feature
but this small thinks are big aprecciated by the normal user

Is there a way that, as people implement such functions they could make
the code available to others in the community who are also interested in
the features? I guess I am thinking of a Derby user code sharing area.
It seems a shame that others interested in the functions might need to
write the same code and worse that users who do not program in JAVA
cannot easily gain this functionality.
We might be able to create a place on the Derby Wiki (
http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/ ) for users to share code.
One concern I have about putting it on the Wiki is users must contribute
code under the ASL (http://www.apache.org/licenses/) , and there's no
way to enforce that with the Wiki. For example, when you upload a file
to a Jira issue it includes a step that allows granting license to the
ASF. The Wiki doesn't have that feature.
I'll ping community@apache.org to see what other apache projects are doing.

I thought that might be a problem. Thanks for checking to see if there
is a precedent for this .
