Hi :) Apache are far behind TDF in this. They are about where TDF was about 11 months ago; with no infrastructure and bloated code filled with nonsense entangling the useful stuff. TDF is not traditional hierarchical organisation where "they" run things and "we" wait for "them" to do stuff. There is no "them" and "us" there is only "us" and "some more of us". We need some of us that have experience and knowledge about databases to join in with management levels by joining Steering-Discuss and finding ways to manage a drive forwards for Base. We need to manage this not sit&wait.

2. If LO's in trouble with the current sun-Java, so's OO. Where's Apache in this situation? Again, where's *TDF*? Why aren't they and Apache working together on this? Looks rather like a leadership problem, to me.
Tom, the other points I can not speak to but Apache does not have the code to work with yet. There are people working on getting it so that work can get started. Base is one of the problem areas that I plan to help work on, maybe a move to another DB engine is the answer. As side note: There are sections on the two forums for base tutorials. [1] http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewforum.php?f=83 [2] http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewforum.phtml?f=10 I am no expert on Base so can not say how much the links will help but hopefully they will help some.
