Hey Jeff, please either open a ticket using RT or discuss it on dbi-dev@ or probably dbi-users@. For now, I cc dbi-dev@. For feature requests, cc'ing dbi-dev@ is always a good idea. To your mail itself: I absolutely don't know what you're talking about. No version information, nothing about the OS/distribution you use. No test describing what you're doing and what's failing. Probably you can fix this and after that worry about your tone ;) Best regards, Jens
