W3C Working Group Just Killed Web SQL Database

If the SQL guys were serious about their shit they should have patch some JavaScript at the syntax level.

Instead they pushed/lobbied for the usual broken binding that is the very reason SQL is so contreversed: impedance mismatch.

Of course, hacking a javascript parser to introduce some SQL semantic in it is not exactly "easy"

Basically, the initiative was doomed from day one, what a waste of time...

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. SQL works quite well in just about every language there is without introducing new syntax. Are you talking about something like LINQ? Nice, but unnecessary.
