Thanks, Jean. The Edition line turns up in the visible text which
appears in the printed document. That makes me think that it applies to
something that the customer, the reader, cares about. I don't think the
reader is particularly concerned about our transition to dita. If that
is what Edition is supposed to capture, perhaps the Edition lines should
be moved to a comments section so that they will not be
visible/confusing to customers.
The Developers Guide has a "first edition" for both 10.0 and 10.1:
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.0/manuals/develop/develop.html
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.1/devguide/rdevcopyright.html
I don't know why the Edition was bumped for the others. :-)
If there isn't a major change to the content of the book, I don't think
the edition should be bumped.
"Working With Derby" should definitely not be bumped from First to
Second edition since 10.2 will be its first release.
I could just bump the edition for the Reference Guide, which will carry
a lot of edits to reflect JDBC4. Would that be acceptable?
