Hi Lukas, This is great that you contacted us, thank you. I'm Cc in gora-dev@ because I think integrating JOOQ API into Gora is something that will inevitably affect the entire gora-sql module and subsequently we will make better decisions for the project as a community.
WRT the SQL module, this is not the primary focus for Apache Gora, that being said it is extremely important for us to use implementations that do the best job available. Basically, our original reasoning behind removal of the sqlbuilder library is described within the Jira issue you replied to, with this in mind I discovered JOOQ and am personally drawn towards it due to it: -released on ASL 2.0 - supporting a myriad of SQL stores I wonder if you can explain a bit more (either on this thread or on the issue) about what benefits JOOQ would provide if we were to use it within Apache Gora? Thanks again for getting in touch. Best Lewis -- *Lewis*
