Hi Jarosław,

What problems do you see if the kexiDB code just stays in the same subdir 
it is in now until there is a stable API?

I don't follow this line.   Do you mean the other apps will not link to 
the full kexiDb library?

Question; Is it possible to have just a couple of classes public so the 
gory details of connections and drivers are all hidden from the public 
API?
