Has anyone tried to getting the windows ODBC driver manager to recognize
Hive's unixODBC ODBC driver? I was able to build unixODBC on cygwin
following these directions (
http://embeddedtimes.wordpress.com/2009/05/10/installing-unixodbc-on-cygwin-windows-xp/),
but it's unclear to me if it is possible to make the windows ODBC driver
manager recognize a driver written using the unixODBC library. Does anyone
on the list know if this should definitely not work?

If unixODBC is a non-starter on windows, we should file a new ticket for a
windows compatible Hive ODBC driver. I imagine that most of the people who
want to use ODBC to connect to Hive are running windows.
