Agenda:

- Welcome

- Arabba SR3 Released

- Arabba SR4 Schedule

- Updates on open SPI Issues

- Updates on open Driver Issues

- Open Q&A

Attribute definition on connection creation

- Allow specification of connection attributes (read only, isolation level, …) during connection acquisition so drivers and pools can optimize for the intended usage (e.g. obtain a read-only connection to a replica node) (e.g. ConnectionFactory.create(ConnectionDefinition)).

- Related to #159 (extended transaction definitions). Requires rules that certain attributes cannot be changed after connection acquisition (e.g. read-only connection does not allow read-write transactions)

- Discussion whether setter methods (setIsolationLevel, setAutoCommit) are still required

- Discussion will continue in issue tracker
