BioSQL is a subset of OBDA - OBDA includes standards for sequence retrieval from HTTP, local Flat files (Berkeley DB indexed and a new index format), BioCORBA, and BioSQL. If you have specific gripes or kudos for OBDA we should move them over to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to try and be cross-project friendly. We hope to have a full fledged standard proposal put together in the next few months, right now most things are split up in different working docs - all available from the obf-common CVS repository - see http://cvs.open-bio.org for info on downloading.
