My two cents: I wouldn't object to postponing release a day or so for
it, *but* if what we're getting is an un-beta-tested driver then my
level of enthusiasm drops considerably. I'd rather say "it'll get
fixed in 7.0.1, after a decent testing interval for the new driver".
Relevant question: how well does the JDBC code that's in CVS now
work with 7.0? If the answer is "hardly at all" then a new driver
is probably better even if it has lurking bugs. If the answer is
"pretty well" then again I'd be inclined to ship what we've got.
