It's not necessary to be demanding and almost rude to get attention. I 
haven't seen any requests for myODBC at all (at least since May, which 
is as far as my cooker mailbox goes atm).

I have an RPM that compiles fine, and should be ok, but I haven't had a 
chance to test it. I will put it up somewhere for you, and in the mean 
time try and test it and get it into contrib.

Here, try these:

http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake/cooker/MyODBC-2.50.39-1mdk.i586.rpm

Agreed, and a frontend for MySQL would also be cool, I guess I should 
take another look at MyCC also.
