Hi,

> I'm currently in DB API mode (working on PDO), 

I know PDO is slated to be _the_ db-abstraction module from 5.x (5.1?)
onwards (which would replace dbx, but that's fine by me: PDO seems to
work more or less the same but with a more OO-ish api), but I was
wondering if these names bear any relation to the Python DB-API and the
Python Database Objects, or if that is more of a coincidence?

Also, will there be an complementary SQL-abstraction package for
SQL-dialect differences (such as UPPER(value) vs. UCASE(value), or
differences in TOP/LIMIT/OFFSET usage)? 
I have a preliminary package ready (in php-source-code, not c) that is
coupled to an OO-ish api for dbx, but is easily rewritable to a more
generic version.

Cheerio, Marc.
