Thanks for starting this thread.

That's pretty wordy, and other than "DBI" doesn't tell us what it is. 
How about DBAPI? Or something short and sweet.

Yeah, I have no major objections so far to the proposal. It would be nice to 
keep 
things close to DBI where it makes sense, but this seems like a good 
opportunity to, 
like Perl 6, keep the good stuff and replace the cruft.

That's a tall order, of course, which makes me wish we had started this thread 
about 10 years ago. You know, that time when Perl 6 was just about to be 
released. :)
