Thanks! I will comment on the Org-related part.

This is not a complete changelog of your changes. Please check out
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#commit-messages and follow
the format.

In general, because you plan to be the maintainer, please familiarize
yourself with all the conventions discussed in
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html and
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-maintenance.html

I think adding you as a maintainer should be a separate patch to make
the change distinct.

Do we need to load sql.el early? May we do it dynamically instead?

> +(defvar org-babel-sql-session-start-time)

This variable is unused. What is it for?

Should it be a defcustom?

> +(defvar org-sql-session-command-terminated nil)

AFAIU, this is some kind of flag to be used inside sql comit buffer.
Should it be buffer-local?
Also, please add a docstring.

> +(defvar org-sql-session--batch-terminate  "---#"  "To print at the end of a

This is a bit weird formatting. In Elisp, the docstring is usually
placed on a separate line. Also, please check out
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Documentation-Tips.html
Your docstring here reads confusing.

This implies that you treat `org-sql-session--batch-terminate' as a
constant. If so, maybe declare it as such.

Also, should it be a defcustom?

> +(defvar org-sql-terminal-command-prefix
> +  (list 'sqlite "\\."

This variable is unused.

> +(defvar org-sql-environment
> +  (list 'postgres '(("PGPASSWORD" sql-password))))

Also unused.

> +(defvar org-sql-session-clean-output nil
> +  "Store the regexp used to clear output (prompt1|termination|prompt2).")

Should it be buffer-local in session buffer?

> +(defvar org-sql-session-start-time)
> +(defvar org-sql-session-command-terminated nil)

Same question.

> +(defvar org-sql-session--batch-terminate  "---#"  "To print at the end of a 
> command batch.")

Duplicate defvar.

There is no need to quote nil and numbers.
They are self-quoting.

The docstring is not very clear.

Using global `org-sql-session-command-terminated',
`org-sql-session-start-time', and "*ob-sql-result*" buffer will not be
reliable when there are multiple comint sessions. It will also make it
impossible to implement async sessions.
Please use some other approach (for example, buffer-local or
process-local variables)

(org-assert-version) is needed to detect mixed Org versions.
(require 'org-macs) there is mostly to provide `org-assert-version'.

We do not allow whitespace-only commits. See
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#orgbbd6fd6

> +       (when colnames-p (with-temp-buffer

nitpick: It is unusual to place
(when condition body-line1
               ...)

The common practice is
(when condition
  body)

This will be broken when multiple sessions for different engines are
used in parallel. Please avoid global state.

Why `sql--bufer'? (double slash) It is not a variable sql.el uses.

This looks repetitive with the code in
`org-sql-session-comint-output-filter'. Could it be possible to avoid
code duplication?

Maybe we should wait until it is finished then? You can check `process-status'.

TINYCHANGE is unnecessary after you get the copyright assignment. (which
do you need to get)

Why do you need `insert-for-yank'?
