We have quite a few code changes which I am unsure about at this point.
There are quite a few contributions which are coming in right now. I am
unclear as to how to handle the 7.2/7.3 thing

I don't want to lose momentum, but I also don't want to put out buggy
code?

A number of the contributions are implementations of the driver which
didn't exist before. Since none of the core code is being modified, I am
tending towards adding them as they com in?

The contributions that I am aware of include

MD5 passwords
Exported/Imported keys
Fixes to getTables

Suggestions?

OK, now that we have this, what do people want to do with it, 7.2 or
7.3?  It is a feature addition to JDBC to allow MD5 encryption.
