Supporting open source database is the first step but you're right, we
must also propose a solution for proprietary databases. The difficulty
is to create an framework that proposes the ability to mix native driver
(as level 4 in JDBC) and driver wrappers for undocumented protocols.
Seeing how fast MS is trying to change, perhaps wait a while and see
how it comes (and may be they will open source Sql, I don't think but
who knows).
One could also look at the source code of the free jtds driver (it works
very well) as a reference implementation and at the free tds docs.
About Postgresql, I was joking at my very bad knowledge, but for the few
I saw in docs, it seems to be a nice beast.
Sqlite and Postgresql are good choices IMHO, Mysql not sure but as there
is already a smalltalk native driver IIRC, it may be not too difficult
(and it seems to be fairly used too).
As you, I'm a big fan of MSQL Server but keeps secret this information ;-)
Don't worry, I'll keep your secret secret :)
