Subject: Re: [discussion] future embedded DB in AOO
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.
I thought we had discussion on this, but I could not find them.
I will have later a second look. But this is a good thought. How much
time will an upgrade bring us?
It will influence the roadmap for sure.
Second is why cannot we upgrade to HSQLDB 2.X.
The question is not if we can, the question is if it is worth it.
I would like to take an early opportunity to look beyond the immediate
need of keep things working.
I put on the question what alternative exists. Jörg brought up the
Question how much Java do we want in future?
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.
All opinion and thoughts are welcome. I want to find out where we want
to head with the embedded DB. All Ideas and reasoning can bring up good
Views.
We can also discuss where we want to go with Base. The question is
Connected. And Base needs some love, don't you think?
