> We can't check in any of this work until we understand how our release trains line up. However, the JDBC4-bearing release will need the following documentation:
> 1) Changes to the user guides. These need to be understood. We can analyze the scope of these changes without checking anything in yet.
> 2) Summary page which explains what pieces of JDBC4 we tackled and what we passed over.
> 3) Verbiage for the Release Notes.
> USER GUIDES
> Admin Guide
>   Part One...How to start an embedded server from an application
>     For JDBC4, we can omit the Class.forName() line because
>     of Driver autoloading.
>   Part One...Embedded server example
>     For JDBC4, we can omit the Class.forName() line because
>     of Driver autoloading.
>   Part One...Network client driver examples
>     For JDBC4, we can omit the Class.forName() line because
>     of Driver autoloading.
>   Part One...Accessing the Network Server by using a DataSource
>     For JDBC4, we have different DataSources: ClientDateSource40
>     and ClientConnectionPoolDataSource40.
>   Part One...Using the Derby ij tool with the Network Server
>     In case the DRIVER command ends up being needed pre-JDBC4,
> 	we should note that you don't need it under JDBC4 because
> 	of Driver autoloading.
>   Part One...The NsSample sample program
>     Change NsSample to demonstrate driver autoloading under JDBC4.
>   Part One...Overview of the SimpleNetworkServerSample program
>     Change SimpleNetworkServerSample to demonstrate driver autoloading under JDBC4.
>   Part One...Connecting a client to the Network Server with the SimpleNetworkClientSample program
>     Change SimpleNetworkClientSample to demonstrate driver autoloading under JDBC4.
> Developer's Guide
>   JDBC applications and Derby basics
>     Derby embedded basics
>       Derby JDBC driver
>         Note that you don't need Class.forName() in JDBC4.
>   Derby embedded basics
>     Embedded Derby JDBC driver
>         Note that you don't need Class.forName() in JDBC4.
>     Starting Derby as an embedded database
>         Note that you don't need Class.forName() or the jdbc.drivers property in JDBC4.
>   Controlling Derby application behavior
>     Working with Derby SQLExceptions in an application
>       Note that with JDBC4, these are refined subclasses
>       Example of processing SQLExceptions
>         Say something about SQLException.getCause()
>   Using Derby as a J2EE resource manager
>     Classes that pertain to resource managers
>       Mention the JDBC4 variants of these classes.
>     Getting a DataSource
>       Include example using JDBC4 variants of these classes.
>     Shutting down or creating a database
>       Include example using JDBC4 variants of these classes.
> Getting Started Guide
>   No changes necessary.
> Reference Guide
>   Derby exception messages and SQL states
>     Describe SQLFeatureNotSupportedException and its SQLStates.
>     SQLState and error message reference
>       Mention new unimplementedFeature exceptions.
>       What to do about new SQLStates.
>   JDBC Reference
>     "conforms to the JDBC 2.0 and 3.0 APIs"
>     ->
>     "conforms to the JDBC 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 APIs"
>     java.sql.Driver
>       Amend this to note driver autoloading for JDBC4.
>     java.sql.Connection
>       Connection functionality not supported
>         List unsupported Connection methods.
>     java.sql.DatabaseMetaData
>       Columns in the ResultSet returned by getProcedureColumns
>         Add new columns added by JDBC4
>     java.sql.Statement
>         Note that Derby does not support the execute() and
>         executeQuery() overloads which return autogenerated keys.
>     Prepared statements and streaming columns
>         Note that with JDBC4, you can specify length as a long
>         or even omit the length when setting LOB streams.
>     java.sql.ResultSetMetaData
>         Waiting for feedback from Dag on whether we still don't
>         support isDefinitelyWritable(), isReadOnly(), and
>         isWritable().
>     java.sql.Blob and java.sql.Clob
>         Right now this section says that Derby supports the methods in
>         the Blob and Clob interfaces. This is not true. We should
>         describe the discrepancies, including any additional methods added
>         by JDBC4.
>     JDBC 4.0-only features
>       Add this new section, with a subsection for each SQL interface
>       that changed in JDBC4. The subsections should list new methods
>       that were added.
>     Derby API
>       JDBC implementation classes
>         Data Source Classes
>           List the JDBC4 versions of these classes
> Tools Guide
>   Using ij
>     Getting started with ij
>       Running ij scripts
>         You don't need to specify the Derby drivers
>         on the command line even under JDBC2.
>   ij properties reference
>     ij.dataSource
>       This is the DataSource for embedded JDBC3. Note that
>       this would be different if you are running under
>       JDBC4.
> Tuning Guide
>   No changes necessary.
> Working With Derby Guide
>   Activity 3: Run a JDBC program using the Embedded driver
>     The WwdEmbedded program
>       Start the Derby engine
>         Note that this step (Class.forName() on the embedded driver)
>         is not necessary if you are running on jdk 1.6 or higher.
