Hi Paul,

This sounds good.

I was also reviewing the Release Notes and it looks good. I don't
think 'Using the Bundled Java DB Database' section belongs in the
Hardware and Software Requirements..
Also, I'm not sure if Java DB will be bundled. Jerome, Dinesh, or Sahoo
- can you clarify?

Thanks,
Jennifer
