James,
Yes, please, by all means. Sometimes the precision of the text suffers
from my lack of experience I was looking it over the other day when
someone asked a JDBC question, and was struck by how it's gotten better
lately.
And, in this particular instance, I think your knowledge would be
especially helpful. If someone said AC_FUNC_MALLOC to me, I'd probably
guess it was something to do with autoconf (and not, say, a town in
Afghanistan), but it's just not something I know much about.
You might be interested to know, by the way, that I recently scrounged a
pair of VaxStation 4000's. I think that puts me in the running for most
CPU years per square foot in Manhattan. I got them partly out of
softheadedness and partly just to see how FreeTDS and NetBSD would
behave on them, now that I've traded in SYS$MANAGER for root.
I'll keep you posted, although at the rate I work I recommend you don't
hold your breath or anything. Real datetime support comes first, after
a bunch of real-life support, of course. ;)
Regards,
