It's complete. I can run all tests using server prepare vs. emulated in
the driver, and all pass. I've done benchmarking with my own script and
found using the server is of course faster than emulation in the driver.
Yes, I do have a patch for Rudy, but he's on vacation right now (and
I've been communicating with him all along the work that I'm doing). As
well, "bind_param" now uses the server as well, as opposed to emulation
in the driver, as well as various code cleanups. In early March, Monty
went through the code with me and found various algorithms and logic
that could be reduced, cleaned up cruft, etc.

I am, and replied to that email last night ;) Also, I have even recently
replied to a gentleman from Novell about support on Netware (I was
recently working with the build team for the server on various builds
for different platforms, and Netware was one of the ones that we worked
on making available, so DBD support would only follow).

Thanks much,

Patrick
