Ever error report I received were fixed.  If you have any problem, just
contact me and I'll fix it.

Today we (Markus and me) spent some time to fix the problems.

Can you be more precise? Or you are talking with feelings?

Several guys are using the ODBC support with success.

I repeat: If you have ANY problem you can try contacting the author (aka
myself) and the errors can be fixed.

As you know, a MySQL only driver is a complete diferent animal than ODBC
support.
