Me too!
I look forward to getting pull requests reviewed and in the driver as
well as get your UTF-8 work in per my previous email. We can use all the
help we can get.
regards,
Patrick

Greetings all!
Michiel and I have been talking, weighing options of what course to take in
dealing with moving forward-- with the goal of both offering both stability
and the choice to have the latest functionality and bug fixes as well as
give contributors the opportunity to be part of overall improvements to the
driver.
What we are going to do is:
Add to the connection the ability to turn on proper UTF handling with
'mysql_enable_proper_unicode'. This gives the user volition the option to
knowingly
toggle whether they want the new functionality and understand that
data structures returned or accepted by the driver might be different
than without this setting.
The other options had their merits, but we think this will solve the issue
while keeping the driver unified and prevent divergence.
Thank you for your input over the last couple months-- we look forward to
moving ahead!
Patrick and Michiel
Great! Thank you very much, I'm waiting for a new action which would
bring DBD::mysql back to the active development.
