An all-D MySQL/MariaDB client library:
https://github.com/mysql-d/mysql-native
==========================================

Tagged 'v2.2.0'.

Full changelog:
https://github.com/mysql-d/mysql-native/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

This is primarily a maintenance release including some bugfixes, and the 
beginning of some internal cleanups.

Particularly noteworthy:

I've been increasing focus on addressing the backlog of older issues. As 

("No support for type modifiers in prepared statement parameters."). 
With that, the oldest open issue has moved from an embarrassing 2013 up 
to 2014 (Or 2015 if you discount issues tagged "can't reproduce / need 
info").

Things are moving along!

Which brings up another point, and a call for help:

I've recently done a once-over checking all the currently-open issues, 
addressing/updating/closing whatever I could. I've tagged some of the 
open issues with "can't reproduce / need info":

https://github.com/mysql-d/mysql-native/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22can%27t+reproduce+%2F+need+info%22

These are issues I cannot close without YOUR help. Please, if you are 
the OP or you have ever experienced any of these, then update the ticket 
with:

1. whether or not you are still experiencing the issue, and

2. whether or not you are able to check if it still occurs on the latest 
mysqln-native (and if not, then what, if anything, is blocking you from 
upgrading).

In case the OP's have moved on, it would be hugely beneficial if anyone 
can help me determine if any such issues are still relevant, and if so, 
a test case.

Unless a reasonable argument convinces me otherwise (and I am open to 
arguments), I'm going to set a tentative (ie, subject to change) 
deadline of one year before issues tagged "can't reproduce / need info" 
are assumed to be already resolved or invalid, and eligible to be closed 
on account of "inactivity on an issue requiring followup".

----------------------------------

Roadmap:
https://github.com/mysql-d/mysql-native/milestones

(Roadmap Note: I often postpone scheduled issues to later milestones. 
This is deliberate because, in most cases, I would rather issue a new 
stable release, than delay the release of already-in-master fixes and 
enhancements just because more improvements aren't ready yet.)
