ᐧ Thanks everyone, I shall try the DBXTalk approach. It seems as though it is being actively developed.
As a side note, I think it would be great if Pharo could identify a 'main stream' route for dealing with RDBMS. It would be similar to the way in which Zinc is the main way to do http etc. I wouldn't want to discourage anyone from doing interestng experiments, it's just that a main stream route would help people to get going.
