@hackage hsSqlite30.0.5.20081031

sqlite3 bindings

** 0.0.5 **

As of this release, maintainer changed from original author Evgeny to Maurício.

The new plan is to build a compreensive binding to all sqlite3 C library, and then rewrite the high level code after that, following the original ideas.

A new example was added, '5minutes.hs', a close translation of the C example code found in sqlite3 site at page “SQLite In 5 Minutes Or Less”.

This is an experimental release, important only for maintainer, license and repository change. For the sake of documentation, here is an abridgement of the exchange of messages between the author and new maintainer:

M> Dear Evgeny,
M>
M> I've tried  your package in hackage, 'hsSqlite3',  and from darcs
M> list of changes  it seems you have no longer update  it for a lot
M> of time. Would  you like to give me  maintenance of that project?
M> I'll need sqlite3 in my job  work, so I'll have to write at least
M> enough to get  it running, but it seems you already  did a lot of
M> nice  work  there  and  I  think that  package  should  be  keept
M> alive. (...)
M>
M> Thanks,
M> Maurício

E> I agree :) What is required?

M> Great. I'll check what is needed and let you know. I think I just
M> need to get  a password for hackagedb (I've  just applied to one)
M> and upload a new package, (...)
M>
M> About   the  license:   (...)   sqlite3   itself  is   in  public
M> domain. Since this is a wrapper, although a high level one, would
M> you mind changing the license  for public domain?  (Or (...) BSD3
M> (...))?
M>
M> (...)

E> GPL or BSD is ok :)
