You missed the important part of my post.  Compare what the other popular SQL 
implementations do with the spec, and you'll find that they all have 
significant gaps in their implementation.  You won't find a single SQL 
distribution out there that claims full SQL-92 compliance, and that includes 
all the biggies like Oracle, Microsoft, and MySQL.

We are not saying that SQLite claims to completely conform to the SQL spec..  
We're saying that you shouldn't expect it to, because nothing else does either. 
 Most claim only entry-level compliance at best.  There are higher levels such 
as transtional-level and intermediate-level, but as you get higher fewer and 
fewer implementations claim them.

Simon.
