>From what has been announced on the public newsgroups, it is going to
support a native-access, lightweight layer based loosly around MIDAS, with
support for (atleast) MySQL, Interbase, Postgress - and I'd expect (tho I
dont know) Oracle, Sybase and DB2 connectivity to be in there too.
I'd also expect this to be in there in Delphi 6 too, but again, nothing has
been discussed (that I've seen) let alone announced.
I'd expect to it be like the ClientDataSet stuff, but talking to a DBServer,
not a local file. Not that I've seen anything of it yet. If you want more
info, read the newsgroups:

disappoint the ladies in the village? --Alexi Sayle
