But as I need to update it anyway, is it OK if I do a slightly more
thorough overhaul? I noticed that some of the words marked with * are
actually marked as (non-)reserved word in SQL:2016.
If not, which SQL standard was taken as a baseline?
In some old version (1.5? 2.0?) a lot of keywords were reserved.
Somewhere about 2.1 or 2.5 most of such reserved (in violation of any
standard) keywords were made non-reserved, as a baseline was taken
sql-2003 or 2008, but some keywords that caused massive conflicts when
getting non-reserved were left reserved. So we never exactly followed
some standard, just tried to get a bit closer to one.
Ok, thanks for the explanation.
Would it be OK if I update the *-marks for those keywords not specified
as reserved (or non-reserved) in SQL:2016?
