Hi John and Lyle, John, Apologies for the link not coming through. The Blueprints documentation can be found at https://github.com/tinkerpop/blueprints/wiki. Also, I apologize if I got the terminology mixed up. My indention is to write a DBD for Blueprints in pure perl.
Lyle, thank you for your feedback. It definitely sounds like a good plan. Writing it in perl first would be much easier in my case (C is not my strongest language).
