One of the features I miss most in Phobos is support for SQLite. Several
people have written bindings and wrappers and haven't gotten much
attention. (For example: https://github.com/bayun/SQLite3-D ).
IMHO, we should do the following:
1. Put SQLite bindings and the C code (which is public domain) in etc.c,
just like zlib now. Put it in the docs, etc. to make sure people know
it's there. This will lower the barrier to entry for people who want to
make wrappers. These can probably be included without any review, since
they're a pile of well-tested C code and a fairly mechanical translation
of a header file.
2. Encourage people to make wrappers **after** the C code and bindings
are already "just there", ready to be used. With the barrier to entry
lowered, we might actually get someone who's serious enough about it to
take it through the whole review process, etc., rather than just dumping
a quick n' dirty post to the forum and then forgetting about it.
It's a great idea. But I think there need to be some kind of janitor for
the 'etc' modules so that it does not end up as a new dsource collection
of many unmaintained, some dead and a few live projects.
Btw. are there any kind of automated nightly builds of dmd/phobos to
handle regressions?

Very nice. Is this you own build setup or an official one?
