>
> The Derby documentation does not make it clear that Derby's built-in authentication mechanism is intended for development and testing use but should not be deployed in production systems. Such systems should use LDAP or a user-written mechanism.
> This should be fixed in the trunk and in the documentation for releases 10.1 through 10.5.
> The note needs to be added to one topic in the Admin Guide, two topics in the Reference Manual (the Tuning Guide in 10.4 and earlier releases), and a varying number of topics in the Developer's Guide, ranging from 7 in 10.1 through 10.3 to 13 in the trunk.
