[sqlite] A proposal for SQLite version 3.0

[D. Richard Hipp]

A design proposal for SQLite version 3.0 can be found at:

    http://www.sqlite.org/prop2.html

Feedback from the user community is strongly encouraged.
An executive summary of the proposed changes follows:
   *  Support for UTF-16
   *  Better BLOB support
   *  User-defined collating sequences (for better
      internationalization support)
   *  Smaller and faster than 2.8.13.
The plan is to continue to support the 2.8.X series
indefinately and in parallel to the 3.X series.  But
the only changes to 2.8.X going forward will be bug
fixes.  New features will go into 3.X.  Beta releases
of version 3.X are expected within a few months.
I do not have much experience with UTF-16 and am
expecially interested in feedback on that area of
the design.
