[libreoffice-users] LO Base

I have a question about Base:

I used to work with standalone HSQLDB using Java on the OS/2 (eCS) 
platform.  During that time, it was announced that Sun's upcoming 
release of Open Office would include HSQL as the builtin database 
engine.  I have recently read that Open Office no longer uses HSQL. Is 
that also true of LO?

If HSQL is indeed the builtin database engine, is it really necessary to 
have another database product to do database work in LO Base?

I stopped using eCS a few years ago when the (at the time) latest 
version would not install on my new computer.  I am now using Windows 10 
(which I literally despise).
