I cannot find any specifics in the release information. Thanks in advance

Much appreciated. As it stands, the SA dialect hasn’t seen an update since November 2008. Business-wise, it would be a huge help to know if there will be future updates and if so, when they can be expected (roughly), or if the project is going to be retired completely in favour of the more prominent Django adapter.

Using where rownum between X and Y is still not optimized and it is slow.

I would like to see supported SQL standard syntax OFFSET skip ROWS, because core engine is already in.

I was wondering about DB2 on the Mac also.

> Support for the MySQL syntax for LIMIT and OFFSET

This is a good news !

I tried “SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE LIMIT 4” with DB2 9.7 FP2 , but I got a SQL0104N error.

I couldn’t find descriptions about LIMIT or OFFSET keyword at DB2 information center.

Could you tell me pre-requirement to use LIMIT/OFFSET ?

Thank you.

I’ll see what I can do about this.
