That is, in 1.7, there seemed to be an advantage to using the builtin Java processors but in 2.1 they're the same as beanshell, and one custom bit of beanshell is a lot simpler than 2 string constants and a processor. >> However, after deleting about 10 or 12, Taverna stopped >> responding.

The SQL null handling remains a bit of an issue. SQL tables not infrequently have NULLs that ought to get passed to Taverna (and vice versa, from Taverna to the database). My hack of making a NULL into the string "null" is, well, a hack. I hope there's a better solution eventually.
