If you want feedback on SUR then I strongly encourage you to post a 10.2alpha snapshot that contains SUR, write an intro/overview that explains what functionality you want people to test, point them to the SUR documentation, and spread the word through the derby-user list and any other avenues you want. We all probably need to be more pro-active about encouraging feedback on new features, I'm not sure pushing for a release is the correct way to do that. Dan.
