Hey Jonathan, I learnt OO at school with an OO db/language called Jade (a proprietary NZ language, which is unfortunately marketed pretty badly as it is actually very nice), and since working have been dreaming about not having to bother with a data abstraction layer again. Basically, it is for pleasure that I would be doing it - so if it gets trashed then so be it! I would, however, like to get your ideas on where you would like things to go, as that would mean I could have a think about it too! Any ideas on how you want to do failover would be great as I have been thinking a little about it and can't really think of anything very satisfactory.
