Andreas,
Hi. This sounds like a much better starting point than a Python
module. I don't know what the official standards are regarding
posting DBD modules, but I know that CPAN has serveral categories for
packages, from information/concept (i.e. no code yet) through alpha,
beta, and on to released. It seems that this package ought to be on
CPAN as an alpha release, if you are willing to post it there.
Is this the right approach? If not, and we need to get this fully DBD
compliant, then I am willing to have a go at it, time permitting.
Thanks and regards,
David Hansen

Subject: RE: RDB module for PERL

Hello,
i developed a DBD::RDB module running on RDB 7.0-5 and VMS 7.1-2. It uses
dynamic SQL (via SQLMOD) and it is tested successfully in vitro by many
users on our site. I didn't post it up to now, because it doesn't support
all the features mentioned in the "DBI for PERL" book (e.g. getting metadata
and BLOBs). Also i have no testing suite and pod ... Currently i'm not able
to polish it.
So my question is: Is there interest in a module having this "status" ? If
yes, should i post it into this mailing list ?
Best Regards
Andreas Stiller
