-------------------------------------

Please add this to the Release Notes:

PROBLEM 
NumberFormatException while trying to get connection to a Ipv6 server using the 
ip address as the host name in the database URL

SYMPTOM 
The symptom is you will get a java error like this:
ij> CONNECT 'jdbc:derby://2002:92a:8f7a:13:9:42:73:115:1527/sample;create=true'
USER 'mkutty' PASSWORD 'admin';
JAVA ERROR: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "92a:8f7a:13:9:42
:73:115:1527"

CAUSE:
Derby URL format cannot support an IP address with ":"

SOLUTION: 
There is no Derby fix available for this issue

WORKAROUND: 
Use host name in the URL  instead of the IP address or connect with a 
datasource instead of URL

> Network Client URL cannot take the IP Address as host name for IPV6 machines
