The conventions which I'm used to here in London are:
table names: capitals with _ separator
column names: lowercase with _ separator
e.g. EMPLOYEE_PAYROLL.employee_id

This is not a super important issue but it's very timely.

IMHO, I think the UPPERCASE that is still preferred by many DB admins are a relic from COBOL days, and that the CamelCase is both easier to read. But since Tables maps roughly with classes and columns roughly to members, wouldn't it make sense to preserve case at all times when automated and 'use' same case when manually mapped?
I also think this is a non-issue in that if there is already something in place, then use it. Don't spend time on a change.
