There is no problem if MYSQL is not included in CVS, still I thought if
this
work well for me, then it might work for someone else as well.

On the subject of developing a single interface to all database from *
dialplans - what about unix ODBC and commands like 
	ODBC(Connect DSN connID ...)
	ODBC(Query ${connID} resultID ...)
	ODBC(Fetch ${resultID} fetchID...)
	ODBC(Disconnect ${connID} ...)
	ODBC(Clear${resultID}
would they be generic enough?

Thanks
