I suspect we are trying to track the server release schedule. 7.5 looks
like it might be the first server release in a while that didn't require
changes to the jdbc driver to remain compatible with it. So I don't
know of a reason right now that would force a new jdbc version at the
same time as 7.5 of the server, however I think it is a good idea.

As for the move to gborg, the rational of different release cycles was
one argument made by those forcing the jdbc driver out of the base
source tree. Jdbc was moved to gborg not by choice but by mandate.
