Thanks a lot, I just committed it to the PostGIS repository, in the
"jdbc2/ejb2" directory.

As I'm just at it, I'd like to reorganize the jdbc2 subdirectory a
little. As SVN allows for clean renaming and moving of files, I'd like
to rename the current jdbc2 directory to the more generic "java", and
then have jdbc and ejb2 as directories inside. Especially, as I'm
looking forward to the ejb3 work promised by norman barker, and my own
pljava (coming really soon now[TM] :-)

But this will break packaging scripts for deb/rpm etc, though the fix
will be easy.

Paul, Strk, what do you think about it?

It looks promising, although I did not test it yet. But I'll hand it
over to the EJB experts here, maybe they can make use of it.

No, it's all done, but it would be good if you could keep an eye on the
PostGIS lists to react on upcoming questions, bug reports and improvements.

I look forward to it, as my italian language experience is limited to
ordering food in italian restaurants :-)

Thanks,
