Do we want to be more precise than that? I had been thinking that Derby
was based upon the "Proposed Final Draft", but now I think more likely
it's based upon Mustang b98.

Is there a good statement as to what version of JDBC 4.0 Derby is based
upon, and is that version public?

Maybe the above text is good, but the release notes should state which
point Derby is based upon?

yes, specific details in the Release Notes are important.

For the notice that appears in each jdbc4 topic, I think we want the
shortest notice possible, with a pointer to the Release Notes.
