There is no firm release date for Jaybird 6, probably somewhere 2025 Q1
or Q2. Is there anything in particular you're waiting on? I could
consider backporting to Jaybird 5.0.x if it's not too big a change.

This is for using the createDatabaseIfNotExist option in the connection url, but I'm afraid that's a lot of change....

Yes, that is not a localized or small change.

I'll think it over, if some of the things I wanted to do in Jaybird 6
can be moved to Jaybird 7 (they weren't very solid plans anyway), and
see if I can release earlier.

There is no urgency, but this will allow the jdbcDriverOOo extension to take advantage of the automatic creation of databases in embedded mode in LibreOffice.

Thanks. I'll think it over anyway, because there are a number of other
changes in Jaybird 6 that might be good to get out there.
