[shelbyg] Microsoft licenced a SQL Server 2000-only version of the Data
Direct JDBC Connect 2.x driver, rebranded it as the freely downloadble SQL
Server 2000 driver for JDBC (see:
http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2001/sep01/09-25MerantPR.asp).
Microsoft also purchased tier-2 support from Data Direct for this driver,
and the Microsoft and Data Direct teams work closely together to support
this product -- for customers who have purchased SQL Server support and
also, where time allows, by answering posts on this newsgroup. For the
Microsoft brand driver, Microsoft owns the roadmap and all releases.

[shelbyg] SP3 is currently planned for this summer.

[shelbyg] the JDBC driver hasn't been finalized for next release of SQL
Server (http://www.microsoft.com/sql/yukon/productinfo/) but 3.0 spec
compliance is high on the list. Hope to be able to announce specifics soon.

[shelbyg] the EULA for the SQL Server 2000 driver for JDBC is an agreement
w/ Microsoft. Redist rights to third parties is also high on the
requirements list for the next major version of this driver. Again
specifics still TBD.
