Yes, I've seen your first release. Congratulations to that! I'll
certainly have a look and steal 1-2 ideas ;-)

Immutability can be a great feature if you design your application
around that. I'll be curious how that is received. Eventually, I'll
write a short promotional article about JIRM on my blog, which is
republished on DZone

Interesting. I wonder how SQL templating of that sort will work, once
SQL statements get more complex. Do you support /* ... */ style
comments, too? I've recently had a look at Stephen Colebourne's
(JodaTime) SQL templating solution, where he wrote a little external
DSL for precisely that purpose:
http://blog.joda.org/2012/10/elsql-librarydsl-to-manage-sql.html

I can see that those templating engines, such as myBatis, ElSql, JIRM
work well in an entire problem domain...

> Looking forward to jOOQ 3.0!

Me too! :-)
Thanks for your feedback and for the promotion of JIRM. If you have
any other good ideas that you put in JIRM and that you want to
discuss, feel free to mention them on this group as well

Cheers
Lukas
