in cvs under client-java.

after checkout, cd src/build
./build.sh

to test ./build.sh all-tests

results in output/reports... I haven't gotten around to stealing the report
formatter setup from jboss.

To deploy in jboss, put the output/lib/firebirdsql.rar file in deploy/, and
also the firebirdsql-service.xml file from jboss cvs
manual/src/examples/resources/jca/ in deploy. (This is for jboss 3 alpha
or jboss 3 from cvs, depending on which version you pick. I haven't
checked these actually work for a while).

What are the rave reviews? I work partly based on the amount of interest
expressed ;-)
