Ben,
Since the jdbc driver doesn't poll the server, you would only see
notifications after interacting with the database in someother way.
Thus you will periodically need to issue queries to get the
notifications to be read. (note I havn't tried this, but from looking
at the code this should be the case).
thanks,
