Today at ApacheCon in San
Diego, Sun's Tim Bray said that Apache Derby will be distributed
by Sun as the open Java DB.
Java DB (or Derby) will appear in several Sun products and
NetBeans IDE 5.0 will have a Derby (or Java DB) plugin.
So, now we're going to have IBM's Cloudscape vs. Sun's Java DB
vs. Apache Derby. Confusing? Chaotic? Not really. The three are really
the same piece of software....
