Howdy,
I'm just going to jump into it.
If the question is; should Base not include the HSQL driver in the
6.3 release I would say no.
Fair enough, I imagine we'll still have hsqldb in 6.3 then.
Should Firebird Embedded SDBC be the default selection for new Base
files, I'm agnostic.
Its the default for new base in 6.2 IIUC, so keeping it like that for
6.3 won't make things worse anyway I suppose.
Should the Migration Assistant be enabled by default yes, but the
default button on the Dialog box which opens when the connection to
an HSQL datasource is created stays No. I would recommend an
enhancement which is to include a URL to a TDF wiki page (with the
page setup for translation/NL support) which covers Why it should be
done now, and how to perform a migration both with the Migration
Assistant and without.
On this, my patch at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/73610/ would
add such a link to the migration warning pointing provisionally to the
blank page
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/HowTo/MigrateFromHSQLDB
which someone else would have to fill in. Is that the sort of thing you
imagine here ?
