- Organization:
In RHUG there is jdbc drivers for Postgresql. Great!
How about MySQL. Didn't that compile succeed for Erik Poupaert at some
point, with some hacks? Could it be included in RHUG for a broader
audience?
As far as I understand the problem has its roots in the not yet finished
nio package. This is an area that changes with 3.4. The latest 3.4 I
downloaded had lots of nio stuff in it. How far away are we from the
point where you just grab a jar with a jdbc driver and compile it with
no hacks?
Regarding the implementation of nio, have you read the work by Matt
Welsh :

He has a nonblocking IO implementation, that apparently runs circles
around everything else. Interesting read, it changed a few of my ideas
on how to do things.
