I had the same thought last autumn and then realized I'm probably not going to have the time to do it. Anyway, I read through CA's "openapi" documentation and had at least some thoughts about how to implement an Ingres interface (not that I remember much of it anymore), so it's possible that I could give at least some help. And do some testing, I've still got Ingres installed. Have to check that the license has't expired. -- Jouni Ahto
