The code has not been committed yet, so unless someone is actually planning to finish the work for 10.6, I don't think we need to say anything about it. The patch that's attached to the issue (DERBY-4272) still applies to head of trunk, and the code builds. It looks like it changes the compilation of the tools classes so that they'll only work on Java 5 or later, though. I tried to change that back to 1.4, but the code apparently uses some Java 5 methods. It's probably not that much work to get it to compile for 1.4, but it won't happen until someone volunteers to scratch that itch. -- Knut Anders
