Folks,

Plus some folks don't think SQL99 was such a keen idea. Kline, Kline &
Kline from O'Reilly, for example, seem to think that most of the changes
between the two versions were vendor-inspired and don't do anything to
improve database-building. For example, the huge focus on BLOB support
in SQL 99 begs the question: Should BLOBs be stored in the database at
all? Many DBAs would say no ...
I'm sticking with SQL92.
