Calling tdataset experts




Just thought I would float this and see if there is any interest.

Postgresql is becoming more and more popular and today there is only 1
commercial offering for a tdataset component set.

There is Zeos, but it's not Postgresql specific and is missing things
like aysnc notification support.

My idea is to start a open source Postgresql specific tdataset either
from scratch or by forking Zeos by pulling out needed parts that are
just for Postgresql.


If forked from Zeos the license would have to be
GNU General Public License (GPL), GNU Library or Lesser General Public
License (LGPL)

But if started from scratch it could be licensed as BSD or whatever.


I don't think I could do it by myself, but if there was some real
interest it could be done.


I could provide a homepage and forums for support under the
amsoftwaredesign.com domain and help with coding.

Comments? Questions?
