Hi
I have prepared a proposal for improving DBI, and three backends to
open-source databases: http://bit.ly/1QZNNrC (current version),
http://bit.ly/1Uhn1ZC (version at the time of writing). Among other
things, I plan to improve support for data types, parametrized queries,
and database schemas. Ultimately, DBI will be formally specified by a
test suite and a written description.
Before submitting it to the R Consortium, I'd be glad to receive further
input. Are there other design issues that need to be addressed? Other
points I have missed? Issues you might want to see resolved as part of
this project? See also the GitHub issue trackers for DBI [1] (which also
contains the design discussion [2]), RMySQL [3], RPostgres [4] and
RSQLite [5].
Please note that the deadline for submitting the proposal is already
January 10. Thank you for your attention.
Best regards
Kirill
