It is more capable than ORMs, and provides a layer of abstraction that SQL direly needs but lacks, as well as a shorter syntax, that is in-line with other popular languages.

I've kept working on it, but privately, and I'm trying to make it into a product.

I will probably release it as open-source when it's ready. I still need to figure out the right license, financial model, etc.
