ok mysql and pgsql both now use the native datatypes.
Btw I forgot to mention one new feature in MDB 2.x.
There is a new option called 'result_buffering'.
The default is true which is how MDB 1.x behaved.
Turning this feature off will result in the query results not being
buffered. This means that certain features will no longer work, such as
numRows, seeking back in the result set etc.
However for certain applications this is a very important feature as you
can now handle really large result sets without such a huge memory
footprint.
