Dunno. My quick glance suggests that it doesn't have those bitwise 
operators (manual may be out of date) which Bodington currently needs.

More than that I don't know anything about it.

The reason I orginally picked HSQLDB was I'd heard of it and other 
products (uPortal) used it in a similar way (quickstart) to the way I 
was looking to.

If derby looks better I'm all for updating but I can't see any reason to 
change.
