10.0.2.1 Release Overview
Looking at the site last night I realised that we still don't have any
release notes or explanation of what functionality is in the 10.0.2.1
release. All that is there for the 10.0.2.1 release is a link that takes
you to a somewhat confusing list of downloads.
I was thinking that the 10.0.2.1 link could take you to a page that had
the following information on it, basically an overview of the
functionality, an explanation of the downloads (with links) and a table
of test reports.
If Jean or someone else could "forrest' this, and add it to the site,
that would be great.
Please feel free to add addition features I missed or correct it it any way.
Then I think a similar simpler page should exist for each snapshot jar,
that basically lists the new/changed
functionality.
Thanks,
Dan.

Thanks Jean for pulling all the information together into the new

I think release information belongs with the release itself; in other
words, release notes for 10.0.2.1 should be at
http://cvs.apache.org/dist/incubator/derby/10.0.2.1/ and release notes
for each later release belong with that release. The derby web site can
link to it and, perhaps more importantly, other sites that link to the
distribution can find what they need right there without having to
navigate back to the derby site.
I thought we had discussed this at one point in December. I'll hunt
through the email.
also, I recall that somebody actually poste release notes back in
December and there was a review round or two. I'll hunt through the email.
