[rdb] Repository, contributing, copyright, etc

* Respository I have set up a Mercurial repository for rdb. You can get a copy with this command: hg clone https://boost-rdb.googlecode.com/hg/ boost-rdb You can view the source without installing Mercurial at that URL. * Contributing For those who consider contributing: I would like to keep clear copyright on this work. I propose the following arrangement: if you send me a patch that touches any of my copyrighted files, and I decide to use it, then you agree to transfer the copyright on the entire patch content to me. In return, I guarantee: 1/ the files touched by the patch will remain available under the Boost license 2/ you will get credit for it in the "Acknowledgements" section of the doc. If you create a set of files that is independant from mine and wish to put it in the distributions or in the repository, then you retain the copyright on them and set the rules you want. What I have in mind here is a native binding to a database. I hope that by next year we will have native bindings for all the major databases and obviously I am not going to write them all by myself. * Please help I am looking for the sql 2003 syntax expressed as a graph, preferably available online. Books suggestions are welcome too. * Extensibility For a small touch of technical stuff in this mail: I am trying hard to make it easy to support the various dialects. Here is a proof of concept (add MySQL LIMIT clause): https://boost-rdb.googlecode.com/hg/libs/rdb/doc/examples.cpp J-L
