--- Comment #12 from Michael Meeks <michael.me...@collabora.com> --- Hi Robert; HSQLDB requires Java which is extremely problematic and expensive to maintain. Firebird provides a solution that does not depend on Java, and as such is much more attractive. As & when we update to base from LibreOffice 7.3 which is due later this year we should have Firebird on by default - I imagine.
