BTW, the code has been released under the same terms as SQLite itself. http://git.altlinux.org/people/at/packages/?p=sqlite3-pcre.git git://git.altlinux.org/people/at/packages/sqlite3-pcre.git > I came across this note from last fall while looking for information on > how to activate the REGEXP functionalilty.

Because you need a regexp libaray, which can be as complicated as sqlite itself. Basically you need pcre library, which is simply not part of sqlite. This is why the best way to implement regexp() function is with loadable module, as far as I see.
