Hi,

I have been using postgres for around 7 months now. I was wondering if anybody has considered
implementing an object oriented  programming interface to postgres. Something  along the lines  of
E, and O2 database programming languages, but which will interface into the backend.

The current libpq interface is nice, but a lot of work needs to be done by the programmer if
one wants to access any of the data.

Kindly direct comments, and suggestions to perera@cs.uga.edu,  and I shall post a summary.

peace,
