I didn't see any indication that David's planning on giving a new name to his rewritten PostgreSQL DBD driver, other than the subject of his email. It would cause a lot of pain if the driver's name changed from DBD::Pg, since every place people have DSNs in code or config files would have to be updated ... Would anyone actually consider using a different name than DBD::Pg? It seems it would be a big pain with no benefit, and make it unclear which driver users should use. Jon
