engines * features a meta data extractor (to know all about database
objects in a common way) comes with an SQL console application

Work is in progress for Firebird (Check the git tree). There is also a
special feature which allows one to connect to a database hidden
behing a web server (through specific PHP scripts) * LGPL licensed for
the libraries and GPL licensed for the tools.

News via Mark Rotteveel on twitter

Finishing touches to Jaybird 2.2 beta releasenotes, hopefully I will be able to finally release it this weekend

ps:
Jaybird 2.2 is the next Firebird jdbc driver release with many fixes which will include improved support of the JTA specification (XADataSource and XAResource interfaces). Additionally it already has improved support for OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice Base component, which deviates in some places from the JDBC 3.0 specification.
