I've been offline for most of the last two months due to work deadlines. Around Memorial Day I finally received a Copyright Waiver from my employer (been waiting for over 7 months). So I sat down to to get lots of outstanding new features polished for release. I then spent some time getting caught up on the Emacs Devel maillist and discovered that we have entered a feature freeze.
So, I'm asking if it permissible for me to release the new features in sql.el, several of which I've had email requests for. There's nearly a year's worth of bug fixes and new features that I'd really like to get published. If I get permission, the release should be ready in a day or so. I have looked at trying to break up the changes in to more coherent chunks but the effort will take another week or two to do so.
Features:
* Improved Syntax highlighting for SQLite, MySQL, Postgres and Oracle
* Navigation by SQL statement
* Creation and use of defined connections to simplify establishing interactive sessions
* Ability to view database structures in separate buffers
* Many bug fixes
Thank you.

OK, but commit as soon as possible.

Similar situation here:
I added biblatex support to bibtex.el for which I had several email
requests. I am sorry, release of the new code got delayed. But now it is
ready to go. I can check it in as soon as I get permission for it.
(To the best of my knowledge, bibtex.el is a stand-alone package, no
other code depends on it.)
Thanks,
Roland
