No need to apologise. I wasn't going to go ahead until you had a chance
to give your feedback.

I did follow it and I broadly agreed with each of the steps. What I
hadn't truly appreciated was how much things had changed and the work
that would be required to get a dbcp2 working with it.

I think there is general agreement here that small steps are good.

Absolutely! If we do go down the POOL_FUTURE + backport route I'm sure
there will be plenty of discussion about some of the backports as well
as the work on dbcp2. Any and all help would be appreciated.

If you have any thoughts on the best way to get from where we are to a
dbcp2 that uses pool2 where the core pooling code has been updated to
take advantage of java.util.concurrent then please do share them.
