-Fix postgresql-socket on Lispworks and CMUCL so that the
-socket stream uses a consistent element-type.
+TESTS TO ADD
 
+* CACHE-TABLE-QUERIES
+* Test that ":db-kind :key" adds an index for that key. This is complicated by different
+  backends showing autogenerated primary key in different ways.
+* Test bigint type
+* :db-constraint tests
+* test *db-auto-sync* 
+* for-each-row macro
+* universal-time 
+* owner phrases for postgresql and oracle backends
+* test of large table with large numbers of rows, greater than 2x the number of
+  rows (200) returned by the oracle backend at a time
+* test mixed case table identifiers and column identifiers
+
+COMMONSQL INCOMPATIBILITY
+
+   o doesn't support CHAR and NUMBER types as shown on CREATE-TABLE reference page
+   o (string n) => VARCHAR(n) rather than CHAR(n)
+   o userenv (Oracle specific but deprecated in Oracle 9) 
+ 
+VARIANCES FROM COMMONSQL
+
+COMMIT,ROLLBACK,START-TRANSACTION: 
+ When COMMIT or ROLLBACK are called outside of WITH-TRANSACTION, an sql 
+ transaction must be explicitly started first with START-TRANSACTION. 
+
+OPTIMIZATIONS
+ 
+* Revisit result-type list creation, perhaps caching
+
+POSSIBLE EXTENSIONS
+
+* extend large object support to databases beyond postgresql, improve large object api
+* add support for prepared statements
+* port Oracle backend to UFFI
