I hope that HDBC can be a community effort. Towards that end, I hope to be able to get some trac pages going on somebody's server and perhaps a mailing list where ideas and implementations for future enhancements can be discussed.
That would be very nice.
The development time for a HDBC backend looks like about 1 day per database, including the amount of time it takes to learn that database's C API. (A bit more for ODBC because its API is weird and the documentation is unhelpful)
Huh..being a Haskell newbie (still) learning the language, I can only dream about such productivity :-) Nonetheless, I am very happy seeing the progress of your work and looking forward to help (in any way) so that Haskell get a very solid framework for developing database-aware applications making it (even) more useful/attractive for wider audience of programmers.
Comments and suggestions are quite welcome. Patches too ;-)
For now, I can only say: thank you! Sincerely, Gour
