 	I am interested in it, but I don't know if I really count, and I 
don't care that much about it.  Though I was thinking about taking a look 
at it.  From our conversation a while back about the generalized db 
methods - I think we need those in order to make this job reasonable - 
otherwise it will be too hard to write the queries to be cross-platform 
(and cross-version - we already have enough trouble with just mysql 
versions) compatible.

I have opinions of my own, strong opinions, but I don't always agree with them.
