Not a separate TLP. But then again, 2.0 combines cuz the "alongside" was too much overhead. Regardless: I'm with Nick: the tools don't sound very useful. I'd use native tools for any database. I'd probably script something in Python for encoding type stuffs. I see apr as a *library* for C programs. Definite, clear need for this. I do not believe we need to create cmdline tools, which can be fulfilled with any number of alternatives. Cheers, -g
