Dear all,

libgda (http://www.gnome-db.org) offers a common interface to 
PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, Sybase, ... databases. Libgda is based on Corba 
and gives access to most database and schema objects (tables, columns, views, 
functions are supported, triggers will soon be). It also has XML query 
support, unified types and connexion pooling. 

libgda is an independant library with no dependency to Gnome.

Why not integrate libgda in PostgreSQL to register and access remote database 
objects? This would allow the "attachment" and integration of foreign tables 
& views into PostgreSQL.

Best regards,
Jean-Michel POURE
