Hi Luca,

Wouldn't it be better to manage distributed transactions in the middle tier on top of it all? After all, you are already 
*in* a transaction when you execute your PL/Java code and that's a transaction that you cannot connect other resources to.

When writing PL/Java, I did not intend for distributed transactions to be orchestrated from within it for sure. That's 
not a recommended use-case. In fact, I would strongly advice against it.

Regards,
Thomas Hallgren
