Julie has been indisposed with various things over the past week
or so, and is hoping to be back in full swing this coming week...the last
I heard, she had one bug left to work out in the sources, that caused a
'malloc()' failure (don't ask me details, I don't know them)...

The most current sources available are in v6.3 (available != what
Julie is working with)...unlike the PostgreSQL stuff, the PostODBC stuff
pretty much has one person working on it. Anyone here know enough about
Windows to be able to lend a hand?

It sort of falls under the same rules as PostgreSQL...if you want
it fixed now, offer a hand...there has got to be someone else, other then
Julie that a) knows something about Windows programming and b) wants/needs
the ODBC driver working...isn't there? *raised eyebrow*
