News via Mark Rotteveel on twitter
Finishing touches to Jaybird 2.2 beta releasenotes, hopefully I will be able to finally release it this weekend
ps:
Jaybird 2.2 is the next Firebird jdbc driver release with many fixes which will include improved support of the JTA specification (XADataSource and XAResource interfaces). Additionally it already has improved support for OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice Base component, which deviates in some places from the JDBC 3.0 specification.
