I have added a documentation column and a leading dashboard column to
the table of features on the 10.6 release page:
http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/DerbyTenSixOneRelease Please correct
this table if you know of documentation which I have missed.
I added links to the (not yet finished) documentation issues for the
rest of the features. The only feature with no doc JIRA is DBLOOK
Improvements, but that feature is not done yet and there hasn't been any
activity for quite some time.

Thanks, Knut.

I wonder what we should say about dblook in the release notes. I feel
that the coding is almost done, but the feature needs a lot of
verification, which won't happen in the time remaining for 10.6. What
if anything should we say about dblook in 10.6?

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.

Thanks for looking into that, Knut. I have removed the dblook task from the feature list and moved dblook into a concluding list of deferred items: http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/DerbyTenSixOneRelease

Thanks,
-Rick
