I forgot to tell you also to take a look at #5052 Backend for DB2 v9 database
(http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/5052)

Robert, as much as we appreciate your willingness to help filling the gap for 
DB2 &
Python/Django enthusiast, this doesn't seem to be a defect you are reporting on
IBM_DB Python driver or DB-API wrapper or SQLAlchemy adapter.

If the PyDB2 driver you mention is the other "Python DB API 2.0 interface to 
IBM's
DB2", then you might want to post this on the SourceForge project: 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pydb2/

BTW, do you also plan to use/support the ibm_db_dbi (DB-API 2.0 implementation 
based
on ibm_db Python driver) ?

We also need to reiterate the need for Django implementation spec rather than 
code
contributions we cannot take in at this time, due to current legal setup of this
project (a Contribution License Agreement would need to be provided for external
contributions to this project). See how you can help this project in getting 
Django
support:
http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_frm/thread/80f73f8bbf93c
039?scoring=d&q=ORM&

I'm sorry if I was not very clear/correct. it is true that this is not defect, 
and
this is not using ibm_db_dbi module at all, but I was thinking like this: if you
intend to develop db2 django adapter
(http://groups.google.com/group/ibm_db/browse_thread/thread/18d3eec89eca7e7b), 
then
contribution and additional information could help you. 
Partially read the thread, and think that I understand the license problem you
mentioned (IMHO very hard restriction, doesn't sound "open" at all). If this can
help, I'll remove any legal stuff from the code I sent you.

To answer your question, I plan very soon to replace pydb2->ibm_db_dbi in
applications we use, and no, I don't intend to continue development of the code 
I
sent you (django adapter), but if I do, then I'll be looking to use ibm_db_dbi
instead of pydb2.

Hoping that somehow you'll manage to develop good django adapter. Regards.

Robert, just wanted to clarify, if you read the entire thread referred above, 
it was
never a license issue, the license (Apache) is a standard Open Source one, not 
to
mention that the source code is already out there, as open as you can get:
http://code.google.com/p/ibm-db/source/browse/trunk/IBM_DB/ibm_db_dbi/ibm_db_dbi
.py

The project can be enabled to accept external contributions from Open Source
developers that agree with a Contribution License Agreement (CLA) in order to 
ensure
proper legal requirements. Such CLA is not currently setup for this project, and
until it is available, the team can make use of any public documentation and
developer guides on Django spec, but not actual source code.

Thanks for getting this started.

I have added some suggestions/scenario to the thread, please read and post an 
answer
if scenario suites ibm-django developers. Thanks.
