And the so-called 7.4beta is 7.4.3.7 --> does not include the correct

How can I get 7.4.3.10 build then? Please? How about a beta refresh on sapdb.org?

There are no plans to have collations.
And there are some ideas, but no real plans/time schedule or so for user-defined functions.
I undestand that adding collations in a standard SQL92 way would be major effort, because they were ignored from the beginning (default collation attributes on domains, table columns, order by, collation aware indexes, fixing query optimizer to know about collations in columns and indexes, probably some changes in storage format to put these new attributes in...), but some quick hack replacing the Unicode-defunct MAPCHAR() function should be reasonably simple? Not that old MAPCHAR() would be any miracle, it's not able to map 2-character sequences, but at least something ;)
Well, If I were able to hack on the sources, I could add it myself!
SapDB is opensource, isn't it?
