That was me, although I've been bogged down lately, and haven't been able 
to get back to it.  DRDA, btw, is not just a DB2 protocol but an opengroup 
spec that hopefully will someday be *the* standard on the wire database 
protocol.  DRDA handles prepare/execute and is completely binary in 
representation, among other advantages.
