Our implementations turn out to have quite different feature-sets. Tiago has 
implemented more of the interface, but I think the bit that I have 
implemented is less restrictive and more convenient to use. Both interfaces 
and implementations are almost completely incompatible, so merging them 
doesn't seem practical.

I will continue with mine for the moment. If I get round to implementing the 
callback stuff (and it doesn't turn out to be full of bugs), I think mine 
will become a better choice. At the moment, it depends if you find the 
callbacks useful.

The next stage in my current project is a module to provide a live two-way 
mapping between a relational database and a heirarchy of things which act 
like Lua tables.
