Actually, DBD::Pg maintenance has been taken over by Bruce Momjian, on 
of the PostgreSQL core developers. He set up a "GBorg" project page for 
it (with CVS access and the rest) here:

  http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/dbdpg/projdisplay.php

You can sign up to be a developer, too, a la SF.

I've submitted a number of patches to add meta-data support to DBD::Pg
(which I'm using in a locally modified version). I'll resend them to 
the
new maintainer if needed.

I just asked Bruce where you should send them. He suggested the new 
DBD-Pg mail list. Here's the subscription page:

  http://gborg.postgresql.org/mailman/listinfo/dbdpg

Or you can send them directly to Bruce <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, and 
he'll send them to the list.

I've my first project going live on Oct 28 using PostgreSQL, Perl with
DBD::Pg, and PHP ...


Cool!

Regards,

David

The simplest way to get into SourceForge is to host DBD::Pg as a
project, fill out the appropriate paperwork. I've DBD::ADO hosted under
Orac project, just as a public resting site.

I've submitted a number of patches to add meta-data support to DBD::Pg
(which I'm using in a locally modified version). I'll resend them to the
