I was wondering (as I imagine a number of others probably are), how's
this coming? My recollection is that there was some hope that
something would be available around the August timeframe (please
correct me if I'm wrong). Did you end up deciding to use libpq
(which, personally, I feel would be the best approach)? Is it to Beta
stages yet?

Many thanks for your work on this.. It'd be really great to have a
solid and maintained ODBC driver though personally I hope you decide
to release it under BSD someday, not because I'm a big fan of BSD or
don't like GPL but because the PostgreSQL 'core' could also get the
benefits of the new driver.

Thanks again,

Stephen
