[Dbix-class] request to become co-maintainer of DBD::SQLite

[Darren Duncan]

This is a reply to a post on the dbix-class list.  However, if there is going to 
be ongoing discussion I prefer it happen on the dbi-dev list, since dbi-dev just 
seems the most on topic, I think.

That sounds like it could be a good idea on paper.  I'm not sure I know yet the 
degree of changes it would involve.  By default I think I'll start off with the 
fewest changes, also now most likely using Audrey Tang's amalgamation as the 
point of departure, but DBD::SQLite could also go the way you say.  I think this 
is an idea best discussed on dbi-dev or if you want to prototype and present 
your idea there please do so.  There are probably other issues to consider that 
people may bring up.

Thank you. -- Darren Duncan
