We could have a more frequent release cycle today for jdbc if we wanted.
  There is nothing preventing us from creating a branch for a jdbc
release to be done between 7.2 and 7.3.  But as I have stated in a
previous mail note, there are generally dependences between jdbc and the
backend that will likely require at a minimum a new jdbc release for
each backend release.

Also what happens when we get to the point where we have a java
procedural language in the server?  Then the line that appears very
clear between backend and jdbc code gets very blurred.  (fyi, this is
something that I know two different people are working on and might get
done in the 7.3 timeframe).
