I have an app that is using the 8.2-504.jdbc3 driver. It's currently hitting an 8.3.8 pgsql db. I would like to upgrade the database to 9.1.4. The benefits of upgrading to the latest driver aside, is using the 8.2 driver against a 9.1.4 database supported? If not, any idea what landmines I can expect?

I saw backward compatibility notes that the 9.1-902 driver is backward compatible with 7.2 postgresql+, but nothing regarding forward compatibility of the drivers.

Thanks,
Bob
