opinions please on possible existing app impact of DERBY-1828

[Myrna van Lunteren <m....@gmail.com>]

Hi,

In DERBY-1828, Jørgen proposes to adjust some SQLStates in the
authorization area.
I'd like the community's input on the release-related question:

Jørgen asks:
"Q1) I need your opinion on whether or not this issue can be fixed
before the next major release. I.e., may new error codes cause
problems for existing applications?"

Thx,
Myrna

+1

Also, it's better to change it now than at an later stage when there
(hopefully) will be a significant codebase out there dependant on
these SQLStates.

I say it's fine to make the change, it's very unlikely existing Derby 
applications are dependent on the SQL state for a authorization failure.
