SQLite 3 declared stable today

[Darren Duncan]

This afternoon, the http://www.sqlite.org/ was updated to declare 
that SQLite 3.x is now officially stable with the new 3.0.7 release; 
previously it was in beta status.  This is a big milestone.

One of the things that this version adds (AFAIK), which would be 
relevant to dbi-dev, is proper support for named host parameters, in 
the ISO/ANSI standard format of ":foo".

Is there any particular time table for when DBI v2 will start having 
published releases, which includes native DBI API support for 
standard named host parameters (via the bind variables), or is v2 
simply "some time in the future"?

Meanwhile, I eagerly look forward to another DBD::SQLite 1.x release 
which bundles 3.0.7 and provides its own interface to the named 
params.

Another relevant matter is that this update fixes a symbol-conflict 
fault where DBD::SQLite and DBD::SQLite2 can't be used at the same 
time under Mac OS X 10.2.

Thank you again. -- Darren Duncan
