thanks, that sounds good! I have a production system that uses pdb_mysql
and would be happy to help with testing. I guess there will be some
others who run pdb_mysql systems and will volunteer for testing as well.
 There are no new features that need to be implemented, as far as I
know, but there are at least these three open bugs:

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3019

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2531

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3018

> I'll have a look at the 3.0.20 bugs later this week (most likely on
> wednesday).

In short, the SQL module should

- update only those cells who are affected by an update and not the
whole row (what you planned to have for 3.0.20 and is buggy since 3.0.12
or so)

- should not modify all database entries but only the one affected (the
bug that came with 3.0.20 and destroys the whole database)

- and the SQL schema should be corrected

As far as I know, that's it. Let me know if you need help, and thanks
for your fast reaction, good to know that someone is caring! ;-)

Florian
