Excellent, don't hesitate to share your results on the list.

I guess the next release will be when I find enough time to finish the 
doc and get a decent test suite together. Otherwise, Sequoia 4 is almost 
ready to go for beta.
For the future, I think that you summarized it well, I'm basically on my 
own with the community but Continuent's support is fading out. It looks 
like the early days of C-JDBC but the project is in a much better shape 
with a stable code base.

Thanks for your interest in Sequoia,
Emmanuel
