You are right and I believe that we have achieved the point where some 
hard but quick decisions need to be taken.

So - I propose to make a release that will contain only the parts that 
are known to work, while leaving the rest in the repository for those 
who are willing to experiment on their own.

Obviously the team is not capable to provide a working solution with 
CMake and this is the part that introduces a lot of confusion now. The 
older autotools solution has a very similar status.

I propose to exclude both of them from the release and leave only the 
old-style Makefiles, perhaps together with the Visual Studio 
project/solution files (if they work).

The core of the library, together with Oracle, PostgreSQL and MySQL 
backends are known to work properly at least on some platforms. There is 
also a new subtree for bindings to other programming languages with some 
initial Ada stuff that seems to work, too. These are the things that I 
propose to include in the official release.

Let me know if this is a valid option. I believe that this is the best 
thing to do now.

Best regards,
