My main point would be that we could offer _stable_ versions of
Village and fix bugs that pop up (there are a few out there).
I don't want to develop the Village code any further. But making it
possible for people to replace their village-2.0-20030825 jars with
village-2.1.jar or village-2.2.jar would IMHO give a bit more
confidence into using Torque (which at least for 3.2 will still be
based on village).
Patches that are "database xxx only" can IMHO always be changed to
work with all databases. That's why I'd like people to send patches to
me.
Regards
Henning

Surely it would be nice to have one version of village. But I do not
believe
in putting too much work in sinking ships (well, I got my own personal one
: the scarab@apache installation :-)

Saravanna Kannan kindly sent me the source code of his oracle-patched
version. I am sure he would agree if you would put it in a village main
branch, he was only keen on having one central place where people also
submit patches, so I can send the source code to you. But I had a quick
glance at the code, and it does not seem to be much fun putting the changes
in a village jar that also supports other databases. So, I am sorry to say
that, do not count on me for it :-|
