Re: j2ee compatiable jdbc driver on jdbc.postgresql.org?

Ned,

This is a community of volunteers. So if someone wants to work on JDBC3
that is fine. We don't have the option of telling people how they
should spend their time.

But I agree that jdbc2 still has a bunch of stuff that could be done.
Although much if what remains undone isn't required by the spec.

thanks,
--Barry
