Hi, I would like to propose a new subproject for Jakarta and I will give some details below.
The project is called crossdb and can be found at www.crossdb.com. What is it? crossdb is a Java API that is used to create SQL statements that are database independent. So you can write an application and have it run the exact same on any database (ie: MySQL, Oracle, MS SQL Server, etc.) The current release is ready for download and ready to use on several databases. We currently have 3 developers that work on it. I would like to have more people working on it to get more input and expertise into the different database implementations and I think the Jakarta project is the perfect place for this. I think the Jakarta project is absolutely terrific (and the Apache Foundation) as I try to use anything I can from Apache and it's projects. Basically, the value of this API is that you can save tons of time and effort changing code or learning the different SQL syntax. Now you can just use the crossdb API to write it once, run it anywhere (ie: on any database). Anyways, please let me know if you think this would be a valuable subproject for Jakarta. Thanks.
