The jdbc provider supports both container, user managed and dbcp pools.
As I said, I can't see any reason why this should not be merged back
into the mainline so that it can stay in sync with any planned feature
/api enhancements.
Janne made a comment about not being a jdbc/database wizard himself, but
that really isn't a good enough reason! :-) It hasn't needed any fixes
for about a year - although I have no idea how many are using it.

Really, the only issue I had was that I wanted it to use
container-managed database connections, and not user-managed ones. We
don't want to manage those things ourselves, or incur the security
risks of self-managed connections.
Beyond that, I had no issues...

also a contributor to it. It works really well, and supports different

was wondering whether it would be appropriate to merge this thing back
into the jspwiki core repository?
Andrew had some issues with it, but I can't recall what those were.
The JDBCPageProvider has never been a part of JSPWiki core, so you
can't exactly merge it back ;-)
At this point, we're not merging anything which does not come with an
Apache license or an ASF grant... So that would need to be resolved
first. Also, it would be cool if someone took it as their job to
maintain it- I'm really bad at SQL stuff; I just use Hibernate and let
it worry about the complicated bits ;-)
