That is the reason - Sun will not add interfaces to the technology used only
by two databases, especially if Borland will not put some money into it.

But we plan to proxy events into a JMS topic or queue, so clients could use
standard J2EE interfaces to subscribe for the events. Though this code does
not exist yet :)
