Hi Bipul!

I'm CC'ing the mailing list because we like to keep all summer of code
discussions in the public for drizzle. This makes it easier for
mentors and other students who are interested in drizzle projects to
see what is going on.

You should hop on IRC and talk to the mentor for that project. That
would be stewart on the #drizzle IRC channel.

Also, have a look at the MySQL version of that storage engine. I
recently fixed it up so that it works correctly with MySQL:
