Apache Calcite Avatica Go 3.0.0 is the first release of the Avatica Go database/sql driver since the code has been donated to the Apache Calcite project. This release includes support for Avatica with the HSQLDB backend, updated dependencies and [bug fixes]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/go_history.html#v3-0-0).

There is a breaking change where the Name() method on the ResponseError error type has been changed to a property, Name.

Users of the current Boostport/avatica library are encouraged to update to this new version of apache/calcite-avatica-go as further development will take place in the apache/calcite-avatica-go repository.

For most users, the updating is simply replacing the import path _ github.com/Boostport/avatica with _ github.com/apache/calcite-avatica-go.
