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,

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
