As soon as the BasicDataSource class that I checked in to DBCP is tested
some, I'm going to push for a 1.0 release. The underlying code in DBCP
and POOL seems very solid. And I "stole" the BasicDataSource and
BasicDataSourceFactory code from Tomcat, where it's received at least a
little testing (we're most likely going to switch from Tyrex to DBCP as
well).

At the moment, it implements javax.sql.ConnectionPoolDataSource instead of
javax.sql.DataSource (which is what all J2EE servers provide). I've asked
why they went that direction, but haven't seen a reply yet.
