[R-sig-DB] Help testing updates to RSQLite and RMySQL

[Seth Falcon]

Hi all,

Our group here in Seattle is now hosting the svn repository
for DBI and related packages and we are helping David James to
maintain these packages.

I have updates for DBI, RSQLite, and RMySQL and would like some help
testing them before pushing the updates to CRAN.

You can download the provisional source packages here:

    http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/misc/

A brief summary of changes follows:

DBI, RSQLite, RMySQL:

 - Use the Collate field and individual R/*.R files instead of a
   single generated All.R file.  Should make user contributed patches
   easier to integrate.  Otherwise, should have no impact on package
   behavior.

RMySQL and RSQLite:

 - Make sure all textConnections get closed.  Fixes a bug reported by
   Dirk E.

RSQLite:

 - Update Sqlite to 3.3.7

 - Default when installing from source is now to compile the included
   Sqlite and link to it statically.  This avoids version mismatch
   issues.  It is still possible to link against system-wide Sqlite
   using configure args.

Questions?  Comments?  Send 'em my way (well, the list's way).

+ seth
