Sean, for what it's worth many of us do appreciate the slow and careful development of java.jdbc. When it's used so widely in production code frequent breaking changes are very costly. The new 0.3.0 API is pretty nice, though I have found documentation for it somewhat lacking. That said, I haven't found time to contribute to it either.
Perhaps this thread isn't the right place, but I am curious about the rational and plans for the sql namespace. Is this going to be fleshed out to be more fully featured over time? Why choose to integrate it rather than have it as a separate add-on? Thanks for the work on jdbc. :-) Alex On Tuesday, November 19, 2013 2:28:16 PM UTC-5, Sean Corfield wrote: > > To Michael: It is fairly up to date - there have only been a few small > changes to java.jdbc since the last updates to that part of > clojure-doc.org.
