Well, the MJoin, Queries over graph databases, and Multi-query optimization using eddies and STAIRs all look interesting to me in the context of Drizzle. Additionally, I keep prattling on about moving query parsing initially and later perhaps even some query optimization into a plugin interface Then, if we can allow clients to do those tasks and transmit the serialized results to the server, we could have a win in our cloud-based world. (note, not everyone agrees with me that this is worthwhile. Jim Starkey did this or a form of it some time ago and says it turned out to be a bad idea. But I think the world may have changed enough since then to warrant another stab. I could be wrong though. :) ) If you haven't already - browse through the blueprints too. > I thought it would be cool if I could work on something which the > Drizzle developers would like to investigate or implement but don't have > the time to.
