I can't speak for David, but I wouldn't think BDB would be a valid
target for ActiveRecord. AR is very SQL-dependent, and BDB does not (to
my knowledge) sport an SQL front-end.

Do you know if sqlite 3.x will be supported soon? I just guessing you'd
be the guru working on 3.x support for ruby. :) But I don't know how
soon that would translate to support in ActiveRecord.

SQLite3 support is on my TODO list, but I'm waiting for sqlite3 to
stabilize. (I've had reports that it is still not quite ready for
production stuff.) Also, it appears that more people are wanting me to
finish Net::SSH than work on SQLite3, so Net::SSH is my current priority
(now that Needle 1.0 is out the door).

lol :) no kidding. I'm quite motivated to get Net::SSH stabilized,
though, because once that's done

Gah! I don't even have time to finish my sentences! :) What I *meant* to
say was, "because once that's done, I'll have some time to focus on some
projects I've been neglecting for a long time, like my personal finance
manager."

Sheesh. :)

well, anyway I think an ActiveRecord-like api is possible.
I'm thinking of the MadeleineRecord wish that you can find on the rails
wiki, and of ActiveLDAP.

The plan is that I'm open to contributions :)

Seriously, if you want a certain database supported in Active Record,
you should really have a look at giving it a go. There's a ton of unit
tests, lots of examples from the other adapters, and a healthy
community. Most adapters are around a hundred lines of code.
