Release candidate imminent

The patch for the remaining urgent issue committed this weekend. I would 
like to build the 10.2 release candidate soon. Please let us know about 
issues which you think still block the release. I believe that the 
following issues need to be buttoned down:

1) Work on the JDBC4 disclaimer continues. Thanks to Jean and Laura for 
your great work here. Do you have a sense of how much more time we need?

2) I'm not clear on where we stand on the new scripts for building 
add-on JDBC4 support. When this work finishes, the Release Notes will 
need to mention these scripts. Andrew, can you shed some light on this?

3) Anything else?

Thanks!
-Rick

I'm interested in committing the fixes for DERBY-1589 and DERBY-147.

If anybody has a chance to review these, that would be nice.

If there are no issues uncovered by review, I propose to commit
them tomorrow.

In my opinion, neither of these is important enough to hold the release for,
so if they don't get in in time, that's fine.

thanks,

bryan

Hi Jean,

This sounds adequate to me. I like your solution of factoring the 
disclaimer into a dita variable.

If it'd be adequate to just include them in reference topics (not
"concept" or "tasks") I can get those done today.

Hi Mike,

I plan to do one more mega-merge just before building the RC.

Regards,

are you doing any more merges before the RC?

I have posted a patch for 1839. I am hoping that it will be reviewed
and committed today. The patch updates some of the SQL statements
regarding GRANT/REVOKE.

Thanks, Andrew. I will document this in the Release Notes. I will hold 
off generating the release until you're done and we've vetted these scripts.

Agreed. We should detach these issues from 10.2.1.0. I vote for 
assigning them to 10.2.2.0. I had not considered the possibility of 
mining these issues for more release notes. I can make a first pass at 
this tomorrow.

I stil need to test them more throughly, but they should work as follows:

* download the -bin and -src distributions and unzip them
* set DERBY_HOME to the location where you have unzipped the -bin distribution
* set JAVA_HOME to the location of a JDK 1.6 JVM.
* cd into the tools/jdbc4 directory where you unzipped the -src distribution
* run the update-with-jdbc4 script (or batch file on Windows), and the
jars in $DERBY_HOME/lib will be updated with the necessary JDBC 4
classes.

See also DERBY-1846: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1846

I'd appreciate it if someone could help test the scripts or assist
with documentation.

> 3) Anything else?

JIRA still shows 98 open issues assigned to 10.2.1.0. If a release is
really imminent, can we start punting issues that don't need to be
fixed in 10.2.1.0 out to other releases, starting with the 61
unassigned issues?

I'm tempted to just select all the unassigned issues and punt them to
10.2.2, but perhaps a review of the issues is in order, in case any of
the issues deserve specific mention in the release notes or
documentation.
