My first question has to be : Why are we still using such an old version of HSQLDB? As memory serves it is `1.8.0 and the latest release of HSQLDB is 2.5.1. Second is why cannot we upgrade to HSQLDB 2.X. As a process engineer and not a programmer these are simple questions I need answers for to intelligently contribute to this discussion. Thanks all for your understanding. Regards Keith.
