As you may know, Glorp has a Platform class for each database. They are most
incomplete (as there weren't drivers) and thus this is what we are doing
right now. Now, GlorpDBX only works with PostgreSQL and Oracle. But it's a
matter of implementing those Platforms.

However, we have problems with OpenDBX and MySQL on Windows :(

Finally, if you want, with our refactor, you can create a Glorp Driver
(Subclass of DatabaseDriver) for the native MySQL driver and should work
perfect.

Cheers,

Mariano
