ANNOUNCE: Rose::DB::Object mailing list created

I've just started a mailing list for my RDBMS-OO module, Rose::DB::Object.
The list is for users as well as developers interested in extending or
contributing to the code.

Rose::DB::Object is the latest of many RDBMS-OO modules that I've created,
but it's the first that I've decided to put up on CPAN. Its design is based
on my experiences with other Perl RDBMS-OO modules, as well as my own
earlier projects.

Rose::DB::Object is still in active development, but already has the basic
features you'd expect (insert, update, delete, fetch, iterate) and several
you might not (auto-joins, 1-to-1, 1-to-n, and n-to-n relationships,
extensible column and relationship method generation, DBI abstraction via
Rose::DB) and many more are planned.

Rose::DB::Object designed to be extensible through delegation and simple
inheritance. Performance is also an important goal, and the
Rose::DB::Object module distribution includes a benchmark suite that
compares it with several other RDBMS-OO mapper modules, as well as raw DBI.

The current version of Rose::DB::Object on CPAN is 0.072. The API will not
stabilize "officially" until version 1.0. There will soon be a CVS
repository available at SourceForge.
