Monetdb support

[Former user]

I'm working on creating a monetdb backend.

It's attached to this bug as well as initial testsuite. It's in the initial stages right now, but I thought that I'd put it up here in case others are interested. It'll probably work best with the nightly builds script for monetdb, the 5.2 release has some issues (that are being fixed).

I'm also attaching the start of a testcase as well as my going through the docs and writing doctests for it. The testcase pass right now (on my 5.2+ system). The doctest expose current bugs.

Feel free to leave question/comments here or to me directly

Latest version of backend

What's the status on this backend?

this is totally volunteer driven so is blue sky until someone wants to take it over.

I am interested in this. I may do something with it once the Sybase work is complete.

i've made a rewrite of the python monetdb API, which is completely native python code (no dep on mapi). it also supports python 3.

I'm intereste in a sqlachemy driver for python, but I currently don't have enough time left to do this. Anyway, if somebody wants to continue this work and has problems/questions/bugs, feel free to contact me at gijs at cwi dot nl.
