James: 1) What thread death scenarios are we talking about here? Exceptions on the server side? Client disconnections

Andrew, vaguely recall you quoting a Wiki Web principle of you aren't gonna need it. Looking at your arguments for client side locking, most of them are based on, 'at some point in the future'.
I noticed that when you completed the assignment Andrew you scored 58/80 for locking
was this using client side locking or a more (how to phrase) server-side solution?

Been trawling through the forums a bit more on this issue. I think that the UrlyBird 1.3.1 has different requirements on the locking than the contractors. My DBMain interface has no client id cookie element to it on the lock() and unlock(), just a record number. This implies to me that other assignments might require client side locking, but that its beyond the scope of my version of UrlyBird.
