Hmm...
Time is limited, so I will try to be honest about how much
I can contribute.
But sure, I can try to test a new odbc driver w/ Applixware and
PostgreSQL. I can easily test on glibc machines, but it is harder
for me to test on libc5 machines. All are Intel architecture.
BTW, my current email address is cobrien@radix.net (the stinkers
at digex cancelled the shell accounts!).
