[Typo3-dev] DBAL: Call for sponsors

[Jan-Erik Revsbech]

Apparently the first mail I sent did not get through, so here it comes
again...

I agree that DBAL should not have top priority, but I do think that the
abstraction layer will provide several benefits, for instance a coherent way
to do queries which will minimize the risk of SQL injection. Extension could
benefit from this.

So if the DBAL-projects can be finished in a relatively short time, I agree
that it should be put in 3.6.

I also think that version 3.6 should get out as fast as possible as it
provides som many nice features, especially when integrated with
TemplaVoila. Unfortunally I can not raise any direct money, but what I can
offer is my time. If the team needs more hand to do the actual
implementation, I would be more that happy help.
