Thomas, Dave,

I did *NOT* want to start another discussion about what approach is 
superior.   Keep in mind that for us non-Java geeks most of your argument 
is pure ancient Greek.

What I wanted to establish is: potentially, we will have two Java PLs with 
Postgres.   If we do, we need to have a clear documentation section 
explaining why there are two and why a user might want to choose one or 
the other.  This explanation should be comprehensible to a neophyte Java 
programmer and even to a DBA who doesn't do Java but has to install it.
