Nice!

There is a vaporware project with that name --

   http://code.google.com/p/sqrl/

Unfortunately, Google Code doesn't seem to have an easy way to see
project history -- so I can't tell when this was created, and thus
just how likely it is to be permanent vaporware.

Also, we should make VERY clear that "SQL" is more inclusive than it 
may seem -- that it covers all "RDB" ... We should already be doing 
similar about "RDF" (EAV/CR remains a more accurate label).

Still -- I think I'm a +1 !
