Agreed.

Yep, that is also true, and agreed.

It's ok that you don't believe in it, but the last statement, you know is not 
true.  I have been in this list since 2003 or so, and constantly there is one 
or two request to Dr. Hipp and the owners, per month, to add "stuff" to it.  
Or, things like, "I would love to have SQLite do...", etc.  First of all, there 
are already folks that have written pieces of code that they use themselves for 
their projects.  Imagine if these become available to the rest of the world, it 
would be a nice happy programming place. :-) But, I accept your preclusion of 
being the maintainer. :-)
