Proposal to remove Serialize from the JDBC driver

Hi folks

I would like to propose removing the Serialize code from the driver.

My reasons for doing so include:

1) It adds unnecessary complexity to the driver
2) I don't think this is the correct place for this code
3) There are much better ways to achieve persistence available.

If anyone has any objections, or comments please let them be known
