Well, I believe that the world is better when there are fewer, stronger libraries, as that promotes stability, maintainability, and free-of-bugs-ness. With that thought, I invite you to contribute/rewrite the guile-dbi code as much as you want. You may not want to; I understand; my first impulse was that the code looked pretty darned ugly. But that's an excuse to clean it up, right? FWIW, I'm not actually very interested in maintaining or improving guile-dbi; I'm a lot more interested in just using it (or anything else that does the trick; my needs are very slight). In particular, I have no plans for expansion or redesign; just bug-fixing. --linas
