Derby 10.7.1.1 contains the following new features:

their creators' privileges, rather than with the current user's privileges.
     * BOOLEAN data type - Boolean is now a legal data type for columns, 
routine arguments, and function return values.
     * Table truncation - A new TRUNCATE TABLE command drops all rows in 
a table quickly.
     * Query plan browsing - A new PlanExporter tool helps developers 
visualize query plans better.
     * Unicode database names - Remote clients can now use database 
names which include Unicode characters outside the ASCII codeset.

In addition, Derby 10.7.1.1 contains many bug and documentation fixes.

Please try out this new release.
