No need to be sorry, it was exciting and beautiful.  I don't
have the overview to create a plan for the future like that,
and I'm glad to see someone with your knowledge working on it.
It sounds pretty good to me (as a ctlib user), so you have my
support.


To summarize and check that I understand, the main ideas are:

Create a code branch freetds 2.0 with Scott doing most
  of the initial work for tds, ctlib, and cslib.  Resources
  permitting Scott will convert/help with dblib but that is
  not his main focus.

Initial goals for freetds 2.0:
  Document TDS interface
  Cleanly separate TDS public vs. private interfaces, data.
  Move conversions into a CS-Lib implementation
  Full cancel support
  Remove TDSLOGIN (Isn't there a CS_LOGINFO?  Looks uncommon but still...)
  Create and use TDS_COMMAND for result data
  Support cursors
  Support more result types
